This is yummy for kids and tastes like a HoHo or Little Debbie Chocolate cake
1 box of chocolate cake made following box directions. Split the batter between 2 x 13" pans and bake for about 15 minutes.
filling:
1 stick of butter softened
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
2/3 cup warm milk
1 t vanilla
Cream first three ingredients, add milk and vanilla and spread on cooled cake.
1 jar of chocolate frosting, or chocolate syrup.
drizzle chocolate over the cake in fun crazy patterns to ice. Or: make your own chocolate icing:
3 squares ( 1 0z) Nestles Bakers chocolate
1/4 cup butter
1 cups confection sugar
1 tsp vanilla
Melt chocolate in the microwave for about 1 minute, stir, microwave for another minute. Add butter, sugar and vanilla and drizzle over cake.
Great for big family get togethers or pot lucks. ( Make one keep one for you!!) The first time I had this was ten years ago or so, Mrs. Hathaway made them for the Mcintyre girls and their kids visiting Pittsburgh!
