Recipe Introduction
In my version I omit the nuts, as some of my family can't eat them. You could use coconut instead if you wish.
List of Ingredients
Sift together:-
3/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons cocoa.
Cream together:-
1/2 cup shortening
3/4 cup sugar
--------------------
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup chopped pecans
12 to 16 marshmallows, cut in half.
Recipe
After creaming together the shortening and sugar, until light and fluffy; blend in the 2 eggs - one at a time - beating well.
Add sifted dry ingredients, Mix well. Then add the vanilla and nuts.
Spread in a greased and floured pan. Bake 30 minutes.
then cover top with the cut up marshmallows and return to oven for 3 minutes until marshmallows are soft.
Spread them evenly, let cool and then cover with chocolate frosting.
NOTE:- There was no temperature for baking in this recipe, I recommend 350ºF or 375ºF depending on your stove.
Also I use miniature marshmallows instead of cutting up the regular size ones. (There was only the regular ones when my mother made this recipe when I was little). I also sprinkle chocolate chips amongst the marshmallows, before baking again for another 5 to 7 minutes.
Cool and cut into squares.
