Mississippi Mud Cakes

Perfect for one-- even better to share-- these rich chocolatey cakes topped with pecans, marshmallows, and smooth chocolate glaze are just right when you're harboring a craving for chocolate (and aren't thinking about your calories.)

Step 1: Gather your Ingredients:

Let's start with what you'll need for the cake:

1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
1 1/2 cups milk
16 T unsalted butter 
3/4 cups unsweetened cocoa powder (I used 1/4 c Ghirardelli cocoa and 1/2 c plain old Hershey, just to keep things interesting)
2 large eggs
2 t vanilla
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups toasted pecan halves
3 cups mini marshmallows
