Mississippi mudslide is one of those desserts that you can't stop eating. It is just so good - chocolate, walnuts, coconut, marshmallow, and even more chocolate! How you could go wrong? This recipe has been in our family since I was a teenager. My mom used to make it when my friends came over and everyone loved it. If you love chocolate and marshmallow then you must try this gluten-free mississippi mudslide. The bottom layer is a light brownie-like cake stuffed with coconut and walnuts. Then comes the layer of sweet, stretchy marshmallow fluff. Last, but not least is the smooth, creamy, delicious chocolate icing. The perfect topping for this mudslide.

Once you cut a slice into this mudslide you will see why it has it's name. After a few minutes the marshmallow fluff layer along with the chocolate icing starts to ooze, drip, and slide around. An ooey-gooey mudslide of chocolate goodness! It's one of those things that you can't resist going in for another bite...and then another...you know what I mean. This mudslide is a great dessert when you need to throw something together quickly. Treat yourself to a slice of this gluten-free mississippi mudslide this weekend. I promise you'll love it and so will everyone else.

Let the baking begin!

TIPS AND TRICKS:

- Always preheat your oven.

- All refrigerated ingredients should be room temperature.

- The fluff should be spread on while the brownie layer is still hot so it can melt evenly.

- Once you cut a piece of this mississippi mudslide the marshmallow and icing layers start to slip and slide around (hence the name), so just be aware of this when you're storing it.

- Don't precut this dessert, wait to cut it until you're about to serve it.
