How To Make moms buttermilk cake
-
Step 1mix sugar and flour in a large bowl
-
Step 2heat the butter, cocoa powder and water over low heat until well mixed, pour over dry ingredients
-
Step 3Mix extra well
-
Step 4add next five (5) ingredients mixing well after each item-this batter gets stiff and then loosens up a little-blew up a mixer making 6 of these for my nieces wedding.
-
Step 5pour into a greased an floured pan-I use 11 x 13 inch glass pan-and bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.
-
Step 6While the cake is baking melt the butter, cocoa powder, buttermilk and vanilla in a pan on the stove-use the one you used originally why clean more than one pan?
-
Step 7Mix in powdered sugar until thick.
-
Step 8Once cake is done poke it with a knife or fork ALL OVER-mom said if you don't get enough holes the cake is no good-While cake and frosting are still hot pour frosting over cake.
-
Step 9Leave cake and all in the pan until halfway cool-that is usually when I give in because the kids have whined so much-cut and serve. I like it warm with ice cream on it.
