How to Make Mississippi Mud Cake

Step-by-Step

Set marshmallow creme aside. Mix remaining ingredients well. Pour into greased and floured 10 x 13" pan. Bake at 350 degrees about 30 minutes.
Remove from oven and spread with 1 jar Marshmallow Creme. Allow to cool. Spread with the following icing.
Combine icing ingredients and spread on cooled cake. Cut into squares. ( The serving size I cut is usually smaller than I normally would serve because this is VERY rich, you can decide, Lol)
Hope everyone enjoys. :)
