Frosting
In a saucepan mix 1 stick butter, 5 Tablespoons of cocoa, and 6 Tablespoons of milk. Heat adn stir until blended. Add 1 package of powdered sugar 1/2 tsp. vanilla, and 1/2 cups of nuts (nuts optional). Blend together and pour over hot cake.
I poke holes in the cake with a toothpick so that some of the frosting runs down into the cake. Mmmmmmmm good!!!
I hope others contribute to this thread! | My daughter made this cake this weekend- YUMMY! It is so good and very, very moist. Thanks for the recipe!
