Smore Brownie Balls


Ingredients:
Your favorite brownie mix ( I used Betty Crocker Triple Chunk)
1/4-1/2 cup hershey's syrup
1 pkg Candy Melts in the color of your choice or almond bark (I used red because I forgot to buy chocolate almond bark)
4 graham crackers (smashed up into crumbs)
1 cup mini marshmallows (two for each ball)
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips (I used some leftover easter candy...fyi)

Cook brownies according to the package.

Once cool, crumble up into a bowl and add 1/4-1/2 cup hershey's syrup and stir until mixture can be rolled into balls easily.


Start with a small amount in your hand and roll into a ball.



Press mixture into a "nest" and add two marshmallows.


Fold the "nest" in on itself and pinch to close. Add more mixture if needed.


Roll into a ball and make sure marshmallows aren't sticking out.


Stick balls into the freezer for about 15 minutes. While your balls are hardening, melt your chocolate or candy melts in a double broiler. Keep on low-medium heat to keep it from over heating.


Put your graham crackers into a bag and crush into crumbs.



Take your brownie balls out of the freezer. Doing one ball at a time, drop into the melted candy coating. With a spoon, roll the ball around until covered.



Once covered, use a fork and carefully tap the excess coating off the ball. Once it's no longer dripping, place the ball on a parchment lined plate.


While still hot, sprinkle the brownie balls with graham cracker crumbs.


Repeat the process until all balls are done. In a small cup, Melt the milk chocolate. Once melted, place into a bag and drizzle the balls with chocolate. BE CAREFUL! The bag will be very hot. Do not use a thin sandwich bag for this, but instead use a thicker quart bag. If you don't have a bag, just dip a fork into the chocolate and drizzle on.


Place in the fridge until the coating hardens. Then serve!
