We have a lot of Birthdays where I work and I seem to be the one who brings the sweets!  So for another co-worker’s Birthday in March I made a Mounds cake.  She had mention seeing one on Facebook and how good it looked.  So I googled it and found a recipe, unfortunately now I don’t remember where I found this recipe.  But I do have the recipe written down so have posted it below.  Now I am not a fan of coconut so to me this was okay but everybody at work seemed to like it!

Mounds Cake:

Cake:

                Make a boxed chocolate cake mix as directed (I used Dark Chocolate Fudge)

Middle:

                1 cup sugar

1 cup milk

24 large marshmallows

14oz sweetened coconut  

In pan melt marshmallows in with milk and sugar.  Once marshmallows have melted stir in coconut.  Pour coconut mixture over warm cake (I poked some holes in mine) and let in soak in.  (I left mine for a few hours)

Frosting:

                1 cup sugar

                ½ cup milk 

                1 stick of butter

                1 ½ cups chocolate chips

                Heat sugar, milk, and butter till it starts to boil, stir in chocolate chips until melted.  Pour chocolate over coconut/cake.
