Variations and Substitutions

  • Save a Point: Skip the toppings and make plain, classic brownies if you want a two-point dessert!
  • Turn it into a Brownie Sundae: Serve the warm brownies with a scoop of ice cream if you have some extra points to use up!
  • Smores Brownies with a Graham Cracker Crust: Use low-fat graham crackers and melted butter substitute to make a graham cracker crust. You can put the crust on the bottom of the baking dish before loading the brownie batter on top and baking as usual.
  • Smores Brownies with Marshmallow Fluff: Instead of mini marshmallows, you can use marshmallow fluff. Keep in mind that you will need to use the Weight Watchers recipe builder to adjust the points accordingly!
  • Smores Brownies for a Crowd: Double the recipe and bake these brownies in a 9 x 13 pan instead. It will give you 24 servings!
  • Sweetener vs Sugar: If you don’t like using zero-calorie sweeteners, you can make this recipe with regular granulated sugar. It will increase the points to 6 WW points per serving.

Tips and Tricks for Making the Best Weight Watchers S’mores Brownies

Avoid Over-Mixing: Make sure not to over-mix the batter. Mix until flour clumps are gone to avoid an unpleasant texture.

Check for Doneness: Insert a knife into the center; it should come out clean, or gently shake the pan. If the center is set and marshmallows are golden brown, the brownies are done.

Store Properly: Store brownies in a container wrapped tightly with plastic wrap or with a lid. No need to refrigerate. Reheat in the microwave before eating.

Freezing Tips: You can freeze extra brownies, but the marshmallow texture may change after thawing.
