Mississippi Mud Brownies #Choctoberfest


Happy Wednesday! I don't know about you but it seems to me like this week should be over already. Monday and Tuesday have been super busy with work. I missed my little one so much. It was nice to not have to run out the door this morning.  


This morning was also good because I have a pan of these Mississippi Mud Brownies. I made these up for #Chocotoberfest.  They are probably some of the most decadent brownies I have ever made. Super chocolatey, packed full of walnuts, topped with marshmallows and then covered with chocolate buttercream frosting. Oh my!


There are several ways to make Mississippi mud desserts but I am pretty sure brownies are the way to go.  Also, marshmallows. You can used whipped topping but for me nothing beats the stringy marshmallow gooeyness.


I hope you enjoy and be sure to check out all of the other #Chocotoberfest recipes below.
