Mississippi Mud Cake is a Sinfully Indulgent Chocolate Marvel – A Melt-In-Your-Mouth Sensation
📋 Ingredients
● For the Cake:
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup cocoa powder
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans
4 cups mini marshmallows
● For the Icing:
16 ounces confectioners' sugar
½ cup whole milk
½ cup cocoa powder
¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
📝 Instructions
1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C); grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan.
2: Cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy; add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then stir in vanilla extract.
3: Whisk together the flour and cocoa powder in a separate bowl; gradually incorporate into the butter mixture and fold in the chopped pecans. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
4: Bake for 30-35 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
5: While baking, prepare the icing by combining confectioners' sugar, whole milk, cocoa powder, and softened butter in a saucepan; cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture simmers and becomes smooth and glossy.
6: Remove the cake from the oven and immediately sprinkle mini marshmallows over the hot cake; return to the oven for 2-3 minutes to let the marshmallows melt slightly.
7: Pour the warm icing evenly over the cake, let it cool slightly, then slice and serve.
