Cherry Cola S’mores Brownies

Cherry Cola S'mores Brownies

These Cherry Cola S’mores Brownies are the perfect dessert mashup.  A buttery, graham cracker base is topped with a cherry cola spiked brownie batter, dark chocolate candy bars and maraschino cherries before being topped with a pillowy layer of cherry flavored marshmallows.  They’re pretty much heaven in brownie form!

 Gooey Cherry Cola S'mores Brownies

I can’t believe it.  June is coming to a close and July is just around the corner.  That means that the 4th of July holiday is also next week.  But never fear the swiftly changing pages of the calendar, my friends!  I’ve got the best holiday dessert ever.  Granted, it’s an amazing dessert any day of the year, but these Cherry Cola S’mores Brownies are the perfect dessert mashup to easily feed a holiday crowd.

The inspiration behind these decadent Cherry Cola S’mores Brownies is none other than my super popular Peanut Butter Cup Stuffed S’mores Brownies.  S’mores brownies plus my love of all things cherry cola and you’ve got one delicious desserts.  And to be clear, I’m talking about the delicious fountain cherry cola that you can get at some restaurants that use the real syrup and come with a cherry in your glass.  Those are the absolute best and totally worth the indulgence whenever you can find one.

But back to the brownies!  A buttery, graham cracker base is topped with a cherry cola spiked brownie batter, dark chocolate candy bars and maraschino cherries before being topped with a pillowy layer of cherry flavored marshmallows.  They’re pretty much heaven in brownie form.  The contrast in flavors and textures is so delicious that a pan of these brownies didn’t even last two days in our house.

Recipe for Cherry Cola S'mores Brownies

The cherry on top of these brownies – literally! – are the Cherry Roasters from the Campfire® Red, White & Blue Roasters that create the signature marshmallow layer of these s’mores treats. This new flavor helps take your s’mores to the next level!  Bursting with bright cherry flavor, I love that these marshmallows are larger and flatter than a typical marshmallow which not only makes them perfect for traditional s’mores but they make a nice even layer for the top of these Cherry Cola S’mores Brownies as well.  They also make it incredibly easy to cut the brownies into perfect portions as you simply cut around each brownie.  Or if you’re like me, around TWO marshmallows because they’re so good you need the bigger brownie!

Marshmallows are an everyday sweet treat and a staple for favorite family recipes! From roasting over a campfire or cereal treats to snacking and crafts, Campfire® Marshmallows add a little fun to everyday life!
