It’s all about the frosting . . . and the frosting . . . and the topping for the frosting.
For the cake:
Prepare the cake batter according to package directions. Bake in a 9″ x 13″ pan according to package directions. Allow to cool before adding frostings.
For Frosting #1:
Combine the brown sugar, flour, evaporated milk, and egg yolks. Cook over low heat until thickened to the consistency of pudding, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and set aside to cool. Frost the cooled cake with the cooled mixture.
For Frosting #2:
Mix egg whites, sugar, water, cream of tartar, and corn syrup in the bowl portion of a double boiler. Place the bowl over the boiling water in the bottom of the double boiler. Beat ingredients with an electric hand mixer until stiff peaks form. Remove from heat. Add marshmallow cream into the mixture. Beat to spreading consistency, then frost cake spreading this on top of frosting #1.
For the topping:
Drizzle chocolate syrup over frosting #2 (Do not use the whole container of chocolate syrup. Only use enough for a nice drizzle.) Use a spatula to make swirl patterns. Don’t stress over this part. If it works, it works; if not, then you still have an out-of-this-world cake!

Thank so much, familyof5. I hope that the recipe works well for you. I remember my mom first making this cake when I was a little girl. It has always been one of my favorites.
