What kind of cocoa powder is best for the brownie batter?

How do I get the marshmallows to melt properly on top?

As soon as the brownie comes out of the oven, sprinkle the vegan mini marshmallows over the top so they melt slightly into the warm brownie layer.

Yes, the recipe specifies soy milk or any milk alternative of your choice for preparing the smooth chocolate ganache.

What's the best way to serve these S'mores Fudge Brownie Bars?
