2 sticks butter
1 c. pecans
1 c. coconut
2 c. sugar
4 eggs
1 1/2 c. self-rising flour

(If using plain flour use 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt).

Melt butter and stir in coconut, pour into a mixing bowl. Add other ingredients. Spread in greased and floured sheet cake pan or Pyrex.

Bake 30 minutes at 350 degrees. Remove and cover with miniature marshmallows. I set it back into oven until marshmallows are melted or mushy.

1 stick butter
1/3 c. cocoa
1/3 can evaporated milk
1 tsp. vanilla
1 box powdered sugar

Melt butter, add milk, vanilla, cocoa and powdered sugar (mix well) and spread on top of Mississippi Mud Cake. Swirl on top of marshmallows. It makes marble look.
