I made it.. RICH RICH RICH!!!
Sounds yummy - interesting mix of flavors: cinnamon and chocolate.
Let us know how it tastes! =)
Wow, it sounds SUPER rich. I wonder if Thomas would like to make it - but, then, he doesn't like eatin rich cakes with frosting, so maybe not. :-(
Well, honestly it was a bit rich for me. I have had similar cakes called 'dump cakes' or Texas sheet cakes.
We ate it, and enjoyed it, but probably a once a year kind of desert. Leonie, my bet is that J would not care too much for it....
Make the bread instead! lol

Looks yummery than yum!
I think I have all the ingredients except the marshmallows. I'm up for a rich, chocolate cake before Lent begins. ;)
