Serves: up to 12 if you feel like sharing
Prep: 5 minutes
Bake: 36 minutes
Ingredients
1-1/2 cups sugar
1-2/3 cups flour
2/3 cup cocoa
1-1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup shortening (or butter)
1-1/2 cups buttermilk
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon peppermint (optional)
Instructions:
Beat all on low for 30 seconds. Beat on medium high 3 minutes. Grease the pan and bake at 325 in glass 9×13 pan for 36 minutes.
After the cake cools, mix 2 cups of your favorite chocolate chips or chopped chocolate with 1/4 cup butter and 2 tbsp corn syrup. Microwave 2 minutes, mix and frost the cake.
I know what you’re thinking. But the chocolate comes from cocoa beans, so it’s practically a salad.
