Steps:

• 1. Turn the oven on to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9x13 inch pan.
• 2. Mix together flour, sugar, soda, salt and cocoa. Then, add buttermilk, oil, boiling water, vanilla and eggs. Beat thoroughly and pour into the greased and floured pan. (If the batter seems a little thin, you are right on track! :-) Bake 35-45 minutes, testing with a toothpick to determine doneness.
• 3. Start the icing 5 minutes before the cake is done. Combine sugar, corn syrup, milk and butter in a saucepan and boil 2 minutes (no longer) then add the chocolate chips, vanilla, and nuts. Mix until the chocolate chips are melted.
• 4. Sprinkle the miniature marshmallows all over the top of the baked cake as soon as it is removed from the oven, then drizzle the hot icing mixture over the marshmallows.

Steps:

• For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.
• In a saucepan, melt the butter. Whisk in the cocoa powder, then the boiling water. Let it bubble up for a few seconds, then turn it off and set it aside.
• In a large bowl, mix together the flour, granulated sugar and salt. Pour the chocolate mixture over the flour mixture and stir a few times to start to cool the chocolate.
• In a separate small bowl, mix the buttermilk, baking soda, vanilla and eggs. Pour over the flour-chocolate mixture and mix until everything is combined. Pour into the prepared baking dish and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and turn on the broiler.
• Sprinkle the marshmallows over the cake, then return the dish to the oven to broil until the marshmallows start to turn golden, about 1 minute. Set aside to cool.
• For the icing: Melt the butter in a saucepan, then whisk in the milk and cocoa powder. Whisk in the confectioners' sugar in 4 to 5 additions. Stir in the nuts and vanilla.
• Pour the icing all over the marshmallows, allowing some marshmallows to remain visible. Let the icing set, then deliver or serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°. Spray a 9x13 pan with cooking spray and set aside.
• In a large bowl whisk together the vegetable oil, warm coffee, eggs, and vanilla until combined.
• In a medium bowl sift together the flour, sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and gently whisk together until fully combined.
• Fill the pan and bake for 40-45 minutes, until the center of the cake springs back lightly when pressed on, or a toothpick comes out clean. Immediately add the whole bag of marshmallows over the top of the hot cake and return to the oven. Bake for 2-3 minutes, just until the marshmallows are starting to puff and melt.
• Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool completely. Drizzle the frosting over the cake while the frosting is still warm. Allow to chill in the fridge for about 20-30 minutes until the frosting has set before serving.

THE ULTIMATE CHOCOLATE MUD CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 150°C / 300°F (fan/convection) or 160°C / 320°F (standard). Grease and line a 20 cm (8 inch) round cake tin. The cake rises very high when baking, so make sure that the baking paper rises at least 6 cm (2 inches) above the top of the tin.
• Place chopped butter and chocolate in a large heat-proof bowl. Microwave for 1 minute on high power. Stir well. Microwave for another 30 seconds. Stir until the chocolate is completely smooth and melted. Microwave in further 10 second bursts, if needed, to completely melt the chocolate.
• Add sugars and instant coffee granules. Stir well. Add milk, eggs and vanilla. Stir until well combined.
• Sift over flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. Stir until the batter is well combined.
• Pour into the prepared tin. Bake for 80-90 minutes (1 hr 20 mins - 1 hr 30 mins) or until a skewer inserted in the middle of the cake comes out with only a few moist crumbs clinging to it. Avoid opening the oven door during cooking as much as possible or the cake will sink in the middle.
• Allow to cool for 20 minutes in the tin before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Stir together milk and cream in a small heat-proof jug. Microwave for 1 minute on high power or until it just begins to bubble (but is not boiling over).
• Place the finely chopped chocolate in a separate small bowl. Pour the hot cream and milk over the chocolate and allow to stand for 5 minutes. Stir together until smooth and well combined. If the chocolate doesn't melt completely, microwave the ganache in 10 seconds bursts until smooth.
• Using a large serrated bread knife, level out the top of the cake so it is completely flat. Pour the ganache over the top of the cooled cake, using the back of a spoon to spread it evenly over the sides of the cake. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until ganache is firm and matte. The ganache can also set at room temperature (if your house is reasonably cool), but it may take longer.
• Slice up and enjoy! I find that this cake tastes even fudgier on the second day.
