Chocolate Marshmallow Cake Recipe

Chocolate Marshmallow Cake Recipe

  • 1/2 cup butter (no substitutes)
  • 2 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) package miniature marshmallows, divided
  • GLAZE:
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  1. In a microwave or double boiler, melt butter and chocolate; cook for 10 minutes. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; set aside.
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat eggs, sugar, applesauce and vanilla. Stir in chocolate mixture. Add dry ingredients; mix well. Pour into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 20-30 minutes or until cake tests done. Set aside 1/2 cup marshmallows for glaze. Sprinkle remaining marshmallows over cake. Return to the oven for 2 minutes or until marshmallows are softened.
  3. In a saucepan, combine sugar, milk and butter. Bring to a boil; boil for 1-1/2 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in chocolate chips and reserved marshmallows until melted. Quickly drizzle over the cake (glaze will harden as it cools).
