MISSISSIPPI MUD BROWNIES Recipes

First, I just love brownies. I have tons of different brownie recipes on my site too. I’m thinking of sharing my favorite “brownie in a mug” recipe soon. Anyone interested? It’s our go-to treat when my husband and I want something sweet, fast, that doesn’t make a mess.

Brownies are the best. Top them with marshmallows and the best creamy homemade chocolate frosting and I’m pretty much in heaven.

Second, my Mississippi Mud Cake recipe totally went viral on facebook–it’s had over 9 MILLION views. Say whhhaa?! Obviously you all love the chocolate/marshmallow combo as much as I do, so it’s high time I shared these insanely delicious Mississippi Mud Brownies!

Once they’re cooked you scatter mini marshamllows all over the top of the warm brownies and pop them back in the oven for a minute or two. The marshmallows will gently puff.

Once they’re cool, make the frosting. My mom taught me the trick to add evaporated milk to frosting. I always have some on hand because you can store it in your pantry.

It adds an awesome, creamy flavor. You could also substitute half and half, or milk if you’re desperate, but it wont be quite as creamy and delicious
