Sounds sweeter than Mary Poppins spoonful of sugar, right?

3 Musketeer Mississippi Mud Cake

Mississippi Mud Cake is an iconic chocolate dessert made with soft chocolate cake, gooey marshmallows, and topped with chopped pecans. Sounds pretty amazing, right?

Similar to the traditional mud cake, this recipe includes chocolate cake and sweet marshmallows, but instead of the regular pecans, they doubled down on chocolate and added creamy nougat courtesy of 3 Musketeers.

Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Bar Cake

In the spirit of chocolate candy bars, we had to find a Hershey’s recipe that takes their classic candy to another level, and let’s just say, we did.

This Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Bar Cake is better than your grandmother’s bundt cake (sorry Nana step aside) and might become your new favorite dessert recipe. Usually, we like to lean on the professionals—real bakers and dessert makers—for their expertise when it comes to concocting desserts, but the people over at Hershey’s nailed this one.

The recipe is super easy to make, takes little to no time, and delivers big on the gooey, chocolatey flavor you won’t find in any other dessert cake.

Reese’s Monkey Bread

You know why they wait for dessert at the end right? Because the best things come last and that includes this final chocolate dessert recipe that might just blow your taste buds right out of your mouth.

Introducing Reese’s Monkey Bread: chocolate and peanut butter delight that could put the cookie monster in a sugar coma.

Some of you might be familiar with monkey bread, but if you’re not we’ll be the first to tell you it’s addicting. Think of how addicting mini M&Ms can be, then multiply that by 100 and that’s just a taste of how addicting this loaf of sugary goodness actually is.

When we found a monkey bread recipe with Reese’s, we almost dropped to the floor in disbelief that someone could think of something so delicious and keep it all to themselves.
