1
Preheat the oven to 325˚F and grease a 13x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
2
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 3/4 cup of unsalted butter and semi-sweet chocolate. Microwave on high, stirring every 30 seconds until melted, for approximately 1 minute and 30 seconds.
3
In a medium bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, eggs, and the melted chocolate mixture.
4
In a separate bowl, combine all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Stir this dry mixture into the wet chocolate mixture.
5
Fold in the chopped pecans and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
6
Spread the batter evenly in the prepared baking dish.
7
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs.
8
Remove the cake from the oven and immediately cover the top evenly with mini marshmallows.
9
Bake for an additional 4 minutes, until marshmallows are just soft and slightly golden.
10
While baking the cake, prepare the Mocha Frosting. In a medium saucepan, heat the remaining 1/4 cup of unsalted butter, whole milk, and 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa over medium heat until the butter has melted, stirring occasionally, for about 2 minutes.
11
Increase heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a boil. Boil for 1 minute, then remove from heat.
12
Whisk in sifted powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
13
Immediately drizzle the Mocha Frosting over the marshmallow-topped cake, allowing it to spread evenly.
14
Allow the frosting to harden for about 2 hours before cutting the cake into squares and serving.
