This is a chocolate cake favorite from Jennie.

Ingredients:

  • 1 stick of butter, 4 ounces
  • 1 Cup of water
  • 1 cup of shortening
  • 2 tablespoons of Cocoa
  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 4 eggs, beaten
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • Icing, below

Preparation:

In a large saucepan, combine butter, water, shortening, and cocoa; bring to a boil. Remove from heat. Stir in flour and sugar until well blended. Add eggs and blend well. In another bowl, combine buttermilk, baking soda, and vanilla; stir into the first mixture. Combine with first mixture, then bake at 375°.

(greased & floured pans - 2 layers or one 9 X 13-inch pan)
(no time given, but I would say test after about 25 to 30 minutes)

Icing:

  • 6 TBS of milk
  • 1 stick of butter
  • 2 TBS cocoa
bring to a boil then add:
  • 1 box of powdered sugar, sifted (1 pound)
  • 1 tsp of vanilla
some times it is runny if it is poke holes in your cake for it to go in or if you want the icing thicker add more powdered sugar It's easy to make and everyone loves it.
