This world's best chocolate oatmeal cake recipe is from my coworker's grandma. Made with chocolate chips, cocoa, and oatmeal, topped with fudge frosting.

The World's Best Chocolate Oatmeal Cake

brown sugar

white sugar

butter, melted

eggs, lightly beaten with fork

flour

baking soda

salt

cocoa powder

quick cooking oats*

water

chocolate

butter

milk

sugar

chocolate chips (Ghirardelli again, please)

mini marshmallows*

Preheat oven to 350. With an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugars. Add the eggs and mix well.

Add flour, soda, salt and cocoa and mix until just incorporated. The batter will be very thick.

Add water to oatmeal and let stand for a few minutes. Once oats are soft, add oats/water mixture to the batter and mix well. Stir in half of the bag of chocolate chips (6 ounces).

Pour into a greased or buttered rectangular 9&#215;13 cake pan. Sprinkle the top of the cake with the rest of the bag of chocolate chips (6 ounces).

Bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes or until the surface springs back lightly when touched and your house smells amazing. Do not overbake. Let cool completely.

For the frosting, melt the butter, sugar, and milk in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Bring to a boil and boil for 30 seconds.

Reduce heat to low and add chocolate chips and marshmallows. Stir or whisk until frosting is smooth. Pour immediately over the cooled cake. The frosting crystallizes almost immediately as it cools so it&#8217;s important to get it on the cake while it&#8217;s still piping hot. Allow the frosted cake to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Or&#8230; not.

Couldn't find where to comment. I'm techie impaired. I've made this cake many times and yes, I bring it to the college I teach at in Oman. It's gone by 10. I did find halal marshmallows don't melt properly (and suspect kosher is thesame). I use a recipe for Texas sheet  cake glaze instead and it works wonderfully. Thank you for this recipe. I bake a lot of cakes, but this is the staff favorite.

I made this cake a week ago for my daughter's birthday, and everyone loved it.  It was delicious.  Loved the icing and how moist the cake was.  My daughter told me to save the recipe so that we can make it again.  Definitely a big hit!

I’ve made this cake a few times and I absolutely love it. I was wondering if anyone has tried making it as a layer cake to dress it up? Obviously the frosting would have to be something else too. Sorry I can’t seem to leave well enough alone…

Oooooh all the chocolate and the oaty texture and flavor! Of course this would be gone in seconds, but not just because it was free to your students...because it's made out of the best things on the planet and looks absolutely delicious!
