Thanks Becky,
My grandmother used to make it over 30 years ago & my mom can't find her recipe. My mom turns 82 Oct. 18 & tomorrow she is having throat surgery. I would like to make some and fed ex them to her when she gets home from the hospital.

This is very close to my recipe......they only difference would be that instead of using marshmallow creme, mine uses mini marshmallows sprinkled on as soon as you take the brownie out of the oven, so that they melt on top of the brownie. Let that all cool and then spread the chocolate mixture over the top.

Becky,
How many marshmallows?

That recipe sounds a LOT like one I got in college for Salty Peanut Chews. They taste just like a PayDay bar. mmm... I think I'll have to dig that one out for the holidays.

I use one that uses a boxed brownie mix on the bottom.

1 package fudge brownie mix (9x13 size) plus ingredient for fudge-like brownies
1 package (10.5 ounces) mini marshmallows
2 cups (12 ounces) semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup peanut butter
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
1 1/2 cups rice krispies


Prepare brownies and pour in greased 9x13 pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 28-30 minutes. Top with marshmallows and return to oven for 3 minutes (marshmallows will not be completely melted). Cool on wire rack.
In a saucepan, combine peanut butter, chocolate chips and butter. Cook and stir over low heat until smooth; stir in cereal. Spread over brownies. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours or until firm before cutting.

Here is mine - it's called Mississippi Mud Cake and I have no idea why!
Bake a Duncan Hines Butter Fudge Cake according to directions in a 9x13 pan. Turn off oven when cake is done. Put Marshmallow Creme on top (like Hippo-lite - sp?). Wait 5 minutes and put cake back in oven long enough to melt marshmallow creme. Make icing while m.mellow creme melts.
Icing:
1 stick of butter
5 TBLS cocoa powder
7 TBLS milk
1 box powdered sugar (10x)
1/2 c pecans (optional)
1 tsp vanilla
Mix butter, cocoa & milk in sauce pan. Heat over low heat but DO NOT BOIL.
Remove from heat and add sugar, pecans if using, and vanilla. Mix well and spread/pour over cake as soon as it comes out of the oven.

This is exactly what my mom wrote for me years ago. It has been a while since I made this, but it way yummy (and easy)!
