How to Bake a Chocolate Marshmallow Cake

How to Bake a Crazy Chocolate Marshmallow Cake

from wikiHow - The How to Manual That You Can Edit


Crazy chocolate cake, also known as crazy cake, easy chocolate cake, and no eggs chocolate cake, is a wonderful chocolate cake recipe that requires no eggs. Also, the cake pan does not need to be buttered and floured before baking the cake. In this recipe, the marshmallow is an option, but it makes the cake taste much better. Another option you could use are chocolate cubes; spread them across the top of the cake for a melted chocolate delight.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups (375g) of flour
  • 2 cups (400g) of sugar
  • 1 teaspoon (6g) of salt
  • 2 teaspoons (9.2g) of baking soda
  • 1/3 cup (28.4g) of cocoa
  • 1 teaspoon (14.8ml) of vanilla
  • 2 tablespoons (29.7ml) of vinegar
  • 3/4 cup (176.8ml) of cooking oil
  • 2 cups (474g) of water
  • 12 marshmallows

Steps

  1. Whisk the flour, sugar, salt, baking soda, and cocoa together in a medium sized bowl.
  2. Add the vanilla, vinegar, cooking oil, and water to the mix. Stir until smooth.
  3. Pour the mix into a 9x13 pan. You do not have to butter or flour the pan.
  4. Place the pan into the oven for 25 minutes at 350 degrees.
  5. When the 25 minutes is up, take the pan out and put around 12 marshmallows on the cake.
  6. Place the cake back into the oven for five minutes or until done.
  7. Flatten the marshmallows. This makes them easier to spread.
  8. Spread the marshmallows around the cake. Try to make it as even as possible.

Tips

  • For a thicker marshmallow coating, add more marshmallows when you take the pan out at 25 minutes.
  • You can replace the marshmallows with marshmallow fluff.

Warnings

  • When spreading the marshmallow, it will probably be difficult and may uproot some of the cake.
  • Use care when putting the cake in and out of the oven.
  • Use care when cutting the cake.
  • Note that although the recipe does not explicitly call for eggs, some marshmallows do contain egg whites. If you are allergic to eggs or do not eat them, be sure to check the marshmallows' list of ingredients.
