Bake a Crazy Chocolate Marshmallow Cake

Crazy chocolate cake, also known as crazy cake, easy chocolate cake, and no eggs chocolate cake, is a wonderful chocolate cake recipe that requires no eggs. Also, the cake pan does not need to be buttered and floured before baking the cake. In this recipe, the marshmallow is an option, but it makes the cake taste much better. Another option you could use are chocolate cubes; spread them across the top of the cake for a melted chocolate delight.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups (375 grams) flour
  • 2 cups (400 grams) sugar
