Recipe

Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F and grease an 8″ X 12″ baking pan

Step 2: Melt the butter and pour into a bowl. Add the sugar and beat with a hand-held electric mixer.

Step 3: Add the eggs and vanilla and beat well until it’s smooth and creamy.

Step 4: Sift the flour, cocoa, baking powder and baking soda together in another bowl and mix together. Add the butter mixture and stir together well.

Step 5:  Melt the chocolate in a bowl set over a saucepan of boiling water (making sure the base of the bowl doesn’t touch the water.)

Step 6: Pour the melted chocolate into the batter. Fold and blend it together. Mix in the toasted chopped pecans.

Step 7:  Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan. Tear each marshmallow into about three pieces and poke them into the batter so they are almost covered — some can be poking out on top and others buried deeper — keep it random.

Step 8:  Bake in the preheated oven for 30 – 35 minutes.
