Treat yourself to these decadent Marshmallow Dulce De Leche Brownies for a sweet and fluffy treat. These chocolatey brownies are topped with a layer of creamy dulce de leche and marshmallow fluff for the ultimate dessert indulgence.
I feel like I should really name this post roll-over-and-die brownies because you’re going to devour so many of these rich, over the top, sticky, gooey, fluffy bars of deliciousness that you’ll probably roll over and die of brownie overload.
Seriously, they are so rich and fantastic you’ll think you cannot possibly try one more bite and then the next thing you know you’re standing in front of these dulce de leche brownies with fork in hand.
Creating this Recipe
I originally posted this brownies recipe over at BHG Delish Dish blog, and I have to say it was so much fun. Gosh, it was more than 10 years ago now, but I remember making them with our oldest daughter, and I had so much fun teaching her about melting chocolate, picking out toppings, etc. Now she’s off at college making these brownies for her friends and roommates!
If you could drop everything and recreate a memory for your kids what would it be? Would you be willing to create a memory for them or are you too busy?
But seriously, why didn’t I slow down a little more when I was younger? I was in such a hurry to grow up that sometimes I feel almost homesick, no sad, gosh I don’t know how to explain it, but I miss sitting in the kitchen with my Mom, gardening in our ginormous garden and snitching as many raspberries as I could, camping, singing around a fire, etc. Life passed by and now the same is happening for my kids. I hope I can create memories for them like I had growing up.
Ingredients for Dulce de Leche Brownies
You’ll make delicious fudgy brownies first, and then top them with dulce de leche and marshmallow fluff. Here is everything you will need:
- Unsweetened Chocolate: We like Baker’s brand.
- Butter: adds fat and richness to the brownies
- Sugar: regular white granulated sugar
- Eggs: gives the brownies structure
- Vanilla Extract: adds flavor
- Flour: regular all-purpose flour
- Baking Soda: acts as a leavening agent to give the brownies rise
- Mini Semisweet Chocolate Chips: adds more chocolate flavor and texture to the brownies
- Dulce de Leche: grab a can at the store on the baking aisle or make your own at home with sweetened condensed milk
- Marshmallow Creme: any brand will work great
- Chopped Pecans (optional): If you’re not a nut fan, you can use chocolate chips or toffee bits. I love the texture it adds to the brownies.
The measurements for each ingredient can be found in the recipe card at the end of the post so keep scrolling for all the details.
How to Make Marshmallow Brownies
Making marshmallow dulce de leche brownies is easy as making homemade brownies and adding a few toppings. They are indulgent and irresistible! Here are the steps:
- Melt: Add the chocolate and butter to a medium saucepan and melt over low heat until smooth. Remove from the heat and let it cool slightly.
- Prep: Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a 9×13 inch making pan with aluminum foil extending the foil over the edges of the pan and spray the foil with cooking spray. Spray a ramekin with cooking spray as well.
- Mix: Add the sugar to the chocolate and butter mixture and combine thoroughly. Add the eggs one at a time beating into the batter with a wooden spoon each time. Then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Whisk: Combine the flour and baking soda together in a small bowl with a whisk.
- Combine: Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir to combine. Fold in the semisweet chocolate chips.
- Bake: Pour about a cup of the brownie batter into the prepared ramekin. Then pour the rest of the batter into the prepared pan and bake. The brownie in the ramekin will be baked in 10-15 minutes and the pan of brownies will take about 20-25 minutes.
- Warm: While the brownies are baking, warm up the dulce de leche in a small microwave-safe bowl for about 1 minute or until heated through. Be sure to stir it to distribute the heat evenly.
- Spoon: When the brownies are done, place the pans on a wire cooling rack. Let the ramekin brownie cool completely. Spoon dollops of marshmallow creme all over the hot brownies. Then drop spoonfuls of dulce de leche in between of the mounds of marshmallow. Let stand for a few minutes.
- Swirl: Using a butter knife, gently swirl the marshmallow creme and dulce de leche together.
- Chunk: Remove the small brownie in the ramekin and crumble it with your hands or chop it up with a knife.
- Top: Sprinkle the brownie chunks over the top. Let the brownies cool completely.
- Serve: Lift the brownies out of the pan using the foil and slice the brownies to serve.

Toppings for Dulce de Leche Marshmallow Brownies
We love the crumbled brownies on top of the brownies for this recipe. Brownies on brownies…what could be better?! If you don’t want to bake that little extra pan of brownies, then there are several options of other toppings…
- Chocolate Chips
- Toffee Bits
- Oreo Crumbles
- Cinnamon Chips
- Chopped Nuts: pecans, walnuts, almonds
- Graham Cracker Crumbs
How to Cut Marshmallow Brownies
Plain brownies can be tricky to cut, then we go and add a layers of sticky marshmallow and dulce de leche, and cutting becomes even more difficult. Honestly, my best tip for cutting them cleanly to chill them in the fridge before cutting them. It is tough to wait because eating them warm is so tasty, but if you want pretty, then chilling is the key. Wiping your knife between each cut will also make a huge difference.
Storing and Freezing Brownies
Once the brownies are cooled, keep them covered or in an airtight container at room temperature. They will keep for up to 4-5 days.
To freeze brownies, I like to cut them into individual brownies and then wrap them in plastic wrap and store them in a large ziploc bag. Then let them sit at room temperature for an hour or so to thaw.
