How to Make Wilmington Island Marsh Mud Cake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 13x9x2-inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder and melted butter until smooth.
- Add the eggs, flour, granulated sugar, salt, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer until well combined.
- Stir in the nuts (if using) with a rubber spatula.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 35 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
- While the cake is baking, prepare the frosting:
- In a medium bowl, cream together the brown sugar and butter until light and fluffy.
- Add the cocoa powder and beat until combined.
- Gradually add the scalded milk and vanilla extract, beating until smooth and creamy.
- Remove the cake from the oven and immediately sprinkle the mini marshmallows evenly over the hot cake.
- Pour the prepared frosting over the marshmallows, spreading it to cover the entire cake.
- Let the cake cool completely before cutting and serving. Enjoy!
