A baker who became ‘Instagram famous’ by posting her creations online at the start of the pandemic has shared a simple recipe for s’mores brownies.
It’s the latest simple but decadent dessert from Eloise Head, a self-taught chef from London who runs viral food blog, FitWaffle Kitchen.
Ms Head makes the brownies – which have a chocolate biscuit base and a rich, fudgy centre topped with marshmallow – from simple supermarket ingredients such as butter, sugar, flour, eggs and cocoa.
‘The flavours and textures just work so well together! I’m a sucker for a fudgy brownie and toasted marshmallows,’ she said.

To make the base, Ms Head crushes a packet of chocolate Hobnob or Digestive biscuits and mixes the crumbs with 140 grams of melted butter.
Once the two have combined, she pours another 170 grams of butter into a separate bowl with 250 grams of caster sugar and beats them with an electric mixer for about two minutes.
Ms Head the cracks two eggs on top and whisks again until stiff peaks have formed in the mixture.
She pours in 250 grams of melted dark chocolate, stirs, then gently sieves in 100 grams of plain flour, 30 grams of cocoa powder and one teaspoon of salt.

Once the base has cooled, marshmallows should be sprinkled over the top and grilled in the oven for two minutes
Into a square baking tray lined with greaseproof paper, Ms Head presses the buttery biscuit base and dollops the chocolate mixture on top, spreading it out evenly to ensure it reaches the sides.
She bakes the tray at 170 degrees Celsius for 25 minutes until the top has developed a shiny, papery texture.
Once cooled, she sprinkles 200 grams of white marshmallows over the top and places the dish under the grill for two minutes until the marshmallows have melted to a golden brown.
Photos of the treats, which have amassed almost 20,000 likes since they were uploaded online on February 26, have set mouths watering around the world.
‘Your videos are literally the highlight of my day,’ one woman replied, while a second added: ‘Bet these taste unreal, I need to try them!’
A third said: ‘I HAVE to try these! It’s not a want it’s a need. Pending for this weekend!’
