I absolutely LOVE this dessert recipe, and have been talking it up to all my upcoming hosts! I love it so much that I want to take it to a friend's house for a dinner party, but don't want it to lose its ooey-gooey yumminess in the time before dinner till dessert! Does anyone have any good ideas for pre-making this, or making parts of this recipe before taking it there? I want to make sure it comes out as delicious as it has at my shows! Thanks in advance for any tips!
 
Can you make it right before you leave? I've made mine before a show before and it sat for about 1 hour 15 minutes and was still gooey.

Or premake the brownie and top it off at the person's house.
 
If it cools too much, pop it in a warm oven for a couple of minutes. Just long enough to soften the candy on the top and re-puff the marshmallows.
