Category: Recipes

Cake:
Sift 2 cups self-rising flour and 2 cups sugar in large mixing bowl. Mix well and set aside.

Combine 1 stick margarine, one-half cup shortening, 4 tablespoons cocoa, and 1 cup water in saucepan. Bring to boil.

Pour hot mixture into sugar and flour mixture. Mix well.

Beat 2 eggs into one-half cup buttermilk; add 1 teaspoon vanilla. Mix this mixture with the other.

Pour into 13 x 9 pan. I spray my pan with non-stick spray.

Cook in preheated oven at 325 degrees for 45 minutes. Ice in pan while hot.

Icing:
Mix 1 stick margarine, 3 tablespoons cocoa, and 6 tablespoons buttermilk in a saucepan and bring to a boil.

Stir in 1 pound powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla and pecans, if desired. The icing should be about the consistency of peanut butter.

Pour over hot cake.

ENJOY AND THINK OF SHERRY LOVE!
