OOEY—GOOEY MARSHMALLOW BARS

I took these Ooey—Gooey Marshmallow Bars to work today for my co-worker's birthday. They went like hotcakes!

Here are the ingredients needed:

Here's how it's done: Mix together one devil’s food cake mix, 1/4 cup melted butter, 1/4 cup water and one egg.

The mixture will be thick because these are bars.

Press the mixture into a greased 13” x 9” baking pan. Bake at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Take the pan out of the oven but don't turn the oven off yet.

Sprinkle 3 cups of miniature marshmallows on top of the bars.

Then add 2 cups of chocolate pieces.

Finally, add 1/2 cup chopped peanuts, however I didn't chop mine. (Peanuts are optional: kids may like it better without the peanuts). Put back into the oven and bake 3-4 minutes longer or until the marshmallows begin to melt.

Remove pan from the oven and press the chocolate pieces and peanuts down on the marshmallows so they won’t fall off when you’re eating them. Cut into squares and serve while hot and ooey-gooey! Yummy!

    This just sounds soooooooo good. I love recipes like this that go together really fast and seem to disappear just as fast because they are so good. Thanks so much for sharing. I know your co-workers enjoyed such a wonderful treat. I just found you through Jen's blog. I see you're fairly new and I always love to meet new bloggers. Welcome to this world. It is so much fun to meet people all over the world. I know you will have a great time. We're having a "Cloche Party" that I host on Sept. 11th. I would love it if you would join us. We just decorate our cloches, apothecary jars and any kind of container we have around the house and have a great time. It is a great way to get to meet a lot of bloggers. This time we will be decorating for the fall season. You can go to my blog to see some examples in one of my past posts. Again, thanks for the recipe. This is one that I will definitely do. Hugs, Marty
