This version of Mississippi Mud is a gooey brownie hunk. This was taken from Southern Living.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup cocoa
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter or 1 cup margarine, melted
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup chopped pecans, divided
3 cups miniature marshmallows
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, melted
1/3 cup cocoa
1/3 cup evaporated milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (16 ounce) package powdered sugar, sifted
Directions:
1. Make the frosting: Beat all ingredients at medium speed with an electric mixer until dry ingredients are moistened. Beat at high speed until mixture reaches spreading consistency.
2. Make the Brownies: Combine first 5 ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Add butter and eggs, stirring until smooth. Stir in 1/2 cup pecans. Pour mixture into a greased and floured 13- x 9-inch baking pan.
3. Bake at 350° for 25 to 30 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Immediately sprinkle marshmallows over top; return to oven, and bake 1-2 minutes. Remove from oven, and spread marshmallows evenly on top. Let stand 5 minutes.
4. Spread Chocolate Frosting evenly over marshmallows, and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup pecans. Cool completely, and cut into squares.
5. Note: If marshmallows do not spread easily after 2 minute in oven, do not bake longer. Let stand 1 to 2 minute to soften.
