Mississippi Mud Cake

IngredientsCake:

• Cooking spray
• 3/4 cup (6 oz.) unsalted butter
• 2 oz. bittersweet chocolate, chopped
• 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
• 4 large eggs
• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
• 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
• Dash of salt
• 1 cup chopped pecans
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 (10-oz.) package mini marshmallows

Chocolate Frosting:

• 1/2 cup (4 oz.) unsalted butter
• 1/3 cup whole milk
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
• 1 (16-oz.) package powdered sugar, sifted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

DirectionsPrepare the Cake:

1. Preheat oven to 325˚F. Grease a 13- x 9-inch metal baking dish with cooking spray.
2. In a microwavable bowl, combine butter and chopped chocolate. Microwave on HIGH, stirring every 30 seconds until melted, about 1 minute 30 seconds total.
3. In a medium bowl, whisk together sugar, eggs, and melted chocolate mixture.
4. In another bowl, combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Stir into the melted chocolate mixture.
5. Fold in chopped pecans and vanilla extract.
6. Spoon the batter into the prepared baking dish.
7. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs, for about 20 to 21 minutes.
8. Remove cake from the oven and cover the top with mini marshmallows in an even layer. Return to the oven and bake at 325°F until marshmallows are just soft, about 2 minutes.

Prepare the Chocolate Frosting:

1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine butter, milk, and cocoa. Heat until the butter is melted, about 2 minutes.
2. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil. Boil for 1 minute, then remove from heat.
3. Whisk in powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth.

Assembly:

1. Immediately drizzle the warm cake with Chocolate Frosting.
2. Let the frosting harden for about 2 hours before cutting the cake into squares. Enjoy your decadent Mississippi Mud Cake!
