Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Filling and Topping
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan. In a large mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, flour, and baking powder. In another bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla. Gradually mix in dry ingredients until just combined. Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes.
- While the cake is baking, melt mini marshmallows with milk in a saucepan over low heat, stirring until smooth. Once the cake is baked and slightly cooled, poke holes all over the top with a fork and pour the marshmallow mixture over it.
- Melt chocolate chips in a microwave or double boiler. Pour melted chocolate over the marshmallow-filled cake, spreading evenly with a spatula. Let the chocolate set before serving.
Serving
- Once the chocolate has set, slice the cake into servings and enjoy. This cake pairs well with a cold glass of milk or a hot cup of coffee.
Storage
- Cover the cake with plastic wrap or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To serve, bring the cake to room temperature or enjoy it chilled.
