Instructions
 

  • Place 2 sticks margarine, 4 tablespoons cocoa and 1 cup water in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
  • Set off immediately and add 1/2 cup buttermilk and 1 teaspoon soda. (I measure the buttermilk and stir the soda into it and then add it to the chocolate mixture.)
  • Add 2 cups flour and 2 cups sugar and mix until smooth.
  • Add 2 beaten eggs and 1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla.
  • Beat with a mixer until batter is smooth.
  • Pour into a greased and floured cookie sheet.
  • Sometimes I sprinkle chopped pecans on top and do not frost the cake.
  • Bake at 400 degrees for 25 minutes.
  • If you wish you can ice with with your favorite frosting or use the following:
  • Combine 2 cups powdered sugar, 3 or 4 tablespoons cocoa and 1/3 cup Crisco, 1 egg and 1 tablespoon vanilla and a dash of salt. Beat like thunder.
