S’mores Chocolate Fudge Cake
Description
The S’mores Chocolate Fudge Cake starts with a moist chocolate fudge cake mix baked in a 9x13-inch pan. After baking, holes are poked in the cake to hold warm hot fudge, infused deeply within the crumb for extra richness. Crushed graham crackers add a toasty, crunchy contrast on top. Dollops of marshmallow cream are spread across the surface and then briefly broiled, caramelizing the marshmallow edges for that signature s’mores effect. The resulting dessert offers a fudgy, creamy texture with a balance of chocolate depth and sweet, toasty marshmallow notes. It’s a comforting treat that takes the traditional campfire flavor indoors and onto the plate.
The cake can be served as a standalone dessert, perfect for sharing at home or casual gatherings. The layers of hot fudge soak into the cake, making each bite mouth-coating and creamy, contrasted by the graham cracker crunch and gooey marshmallow topping.
Ingredients
- 15.25 oz chocolate fudge cake mix
- 1 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 3 egg
- 11.75 oz hot fudge in jar
- 6 graham crackers
- 7 oz marshmallow cream jar
- 4 - 1.55 oz. chocolate bar broken into pieces
Instructions
- Mix the chocolate fudge cake following the instructions on the box for oil, water and eggs.
- Pour the chocolate fudge cake mix into a lightly greased 9 x 13" glass baking dish. TIP: To help the cake cook evenly, run a strip of terrycloth from an old bath towel under cold water. Wrap it around the cake pan and secure it with a safety pin. This will keep the edges from cooking too quickly which causes the cake to mound up in the center.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let the chocolate fudge cake cool for 15 minutes.
- Use the end of a wooden spoon to poke holes in the cake about 1 inch apart.
- Heat the jar of hot fudge in the microwave for 30 seconds. Stir, then heat for 20 more seconds. Pour 3/4 of the jar over the top of the holes in the cake.
- Crush the graham crackers and sprinkle over top of the chocolate fudge cake.
- Spoon dollops of marshmallow cream across the chocolate fudge cake.
- Broil on high for 1-2 minutes or until the marshmallows are toasted. WATCH CLOSELY so the marshmallow doesn't burn.
- As soon as you take the chocolate fudge cake out of the oven, drizzle the remaining hot fudge across the top. Insert chocolate bar pieces into the toasted marshmallow.
- The warmth of the cake will cause the chocolate bars to melt slightly. Enjoy!
