If you are a fan of Mounds candy bars, you will love these Mounds Cupcakes! There is rich chocolate and chewy coconut in every incredible bite.
I have always loved the combination of chocolate and coconut. The coconut filling in this recipe is made with marshmallows which gives the coconut kind of a chewy and creamy texture – just like the candy bar. The chocolate topping is rich and smooth and melts in your mouth. It is tempting to just eat it right out of the pan with a spoon. I’ll admit I licked the spoon when I was done – I couldn’t resist!
This mounds cake was shared on our forum. Made with a cake mix, coconut filling and a thin chocolate icing. The cake is split to make four layers or bake it in three 8-inch layer cake pans.
A thin cooked chocolate icing is the perfect finishing touch for this yummy cake.
My husband’s favorite dessert is anything chocolate. Although we are committed to a healthy eating lifestyle, we do splurge on holidays. This year for Father’s Day I made my husband a Chocolate Mound Cake, and he said it was the best cake I’ve ever made. I usually like to prepare our food from scratch, but I took the easy way out and used a cake mix. Even though my morning sickness is getting better, it still hits every day, so this momma needed an easy solution. This Chocolate Mound Cake got such rave reviews from my husband and kids I thought I’d share with you.
