Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 0.333 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 bag mini marshmallows
- 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (for frosting)
- 0.25 cup whole milk (for frosting)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for frosting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix until the batter is well combined and smooth.
Carefully stir in the boiling water until the batter is thin and fully incorporated.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the surface with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and immediately sprinkle the mini marshmallows evenly over the top. They will soften and slightly melt from the residual heat.
While the cake cools slightly, prepare the frosting. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
Gently pour the warm frosting over the marshmallow-topped cake, spreading it evenly to cover the top.
Sprinkle the chopped pecans or walnuts over the frosting for added texture and flavor.
Allow the cake to cool completely before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Heavenly Hash Cake!
