Ingredients
For the Cake:
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 cup butter melted
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa
- 4 eggs beaten
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups Chopped Pecans toasted
- 10.5 ounces miniature marshmallows
For the Icing:
- 1 pound powdered sugar
- ½ cup whole milk
- ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa
- ¼ cup butter softened
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Add the sugar, butter, cocoa, eggs, vanilla, and salt to a large mixing bowl. Whisk together until well combined. Stir in the flour and 1 ½ cups chopped pecans.
- Pour the batter into a greased and floured 15x10-inch pan.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove the cake from oven and top evenly with the marshmallows.
- Return to the oven and bake for 5 more minutes.
While the cake is baking, make the frosting.
- Place all ingredients in a medium bowl. Beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until combined and smooth.
- Remove cake from the oven and drizzle chocolate frosting over warm cake. Sprinkle with remaining pecans.
- Cool completely before cutting.
Notes
- For a shortcut, you can substitute two packages of brownie mix for the cake layer.
- Allow to cool completely before cutting.
- Wrapped tightly in aluminum foil or plastic, this will stay fresh for up to 5 days at room temperature. It may also be frozen, very tightly wrapped, for up to three months. Allow the frozen cake to defrost completely before serving.
