Ingredients:

Serving

3 oz baking chocolate (3 squares)
1/3 cup water
3/4 cup butter
2 1/4 cups firmly packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 1/4 cups unsifted cake flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup water

Directions:

Break chocolate into pieces; place in small saucepan with 1/3 cup water. Stir constantly over low heat until chocolate has melted. Cool. (This can be successfully done in microwave. Go slow so as not to burn the chocolate.).
Cream butter and sugar in large mixing bowl until very light and fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla; beat well. Blend in chocolate.
Combine flour, baking soda and salt; add alternately with 1 cup water on low speed. Beat just until well-blended. Pour batter into well-greased and floured cake pans.
Tip: outline a piece of waxed paper the size of the bottom of the cake pan and cut with sissors to size and place in bottom. No need to grease or butter pan.
Bake at 350 degrees. Cake is done if toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes. Remove from pans by inverting onto wire rack. If using waxed paper liner, remove and discard. Cool cake layers completely before frosting.
Baking Times:.
Two 8-inch layer pans - 35-40 minutes.
Two 9-inch layer pans - 30-35 minutes.
Two 8- or 9-inch square pans - 30-35 minutes.
