Tips

Variation: Omit marshmallows and frost the cake with Pillsbury's Milk Chocolate frosting. Frost while cake is still warm.


Directions

Set aside the chocolate chips & marshmallows for later...

In a medium saucepan, Combine your first 5 ingredients over low heat. Then add your next 5 ingredients (dry).....stirring slightly.
Fold in the chocolate chips with the dry ingredients alternating both till the batter is sticky.....::::now add your hot water slowly....enough to create a "wet paste".

Note: Your batter is ready to bake when the texture is wet and becomes easy to stir.

Pour into a lightly greased 9"x 9" baking pan, and bake at 350 degrees for 15 min. Then add about .5 c. marshmallows to the top. Place pan back into the oven for another 3-5 min. (until marshmallow begin to melt just a bit)

Allow cake to cool for 5 minutes before cutting.
