Now, Joy the Baker suggests adding marshmallows to the batter itself, and I did not do this. Next time I will, as I think it might give the brownies a chewier texture. There are also crushed graham crackers in the batter, which is kind of awesome, but I don&#8217;t think there was enough, so maybe I will add more next time?
