S’mores Cake Recipe

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Add the vegetable oil, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes.

Stir in the boiling water until the batter is smooth. The batter will be thin.

Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.

In a separate bowl, cream the butter until light and fluffy. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and beat until smooth.

Fold in the marshmallow fluff until well combined.

Once the cake has cooled, slice it in half horizontally to create two layers. Place one layer on a cake stand or serving plate.

Spread a generous amount of the marshmallow frosting on top of the cake layer, then sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs.

Place the second cake layer on top and frost the entire cake with the remaining marshmallow frosting.

Optional: Use a kitchen torch to lightly toast the marshmallow frosting for that authentic s’mores flavor.

Serve and enjoy!
