Happy Birthday to Me!



I'm a little behind the times in posting this, as my birthday was last week.  But, Mississippi Mud Cake is delicious and needs to be posted about, no matter how many days late it is.

Mississippi Mud Cake

4 Eggs
1/3 C Cocoa
1 C Butter
2 C Sugar
1 1/2 C flour

Melt butter and add the cocoa.  Beat all other ingredients into the melted cocoa butter.  Pour into greased and floured 9x13 pan.  Bake at 350 for 35-40 min.  Top with one small jar of marshmallow cream.

Frosting:
Melt 1/2 C butter with 1/4 C cocoa.  Add 6 Tbsp milk, 1 tsp vanilla, and 4 C powdered sugar.  Mixture will be runny.  Pour over cake and allow to cool.

Story:  When I was in elementary school I entered this into the Arvada CO Harvest Festival cooking competition and won.  Clearly even the local food judges think you should try this recipe!
