My Mom found this recipe in the local newspaper years ago. Now I make this for my family! The cinnamon makes it yummy! Ingredients:
1/2 cup unsalted butter |
1/2 cup vegetable oil |
4 tablespoons cocoa |
1 cup water |
2 cups flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
2 cups sugar |
1/2 cup sour milk (place 1 1/2 teaspoons vinegar in a half cup measuring cup and fill cup with milk to equal 1/2 cup) |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1/2 cup butter |
2 tablespoons cocoa |
6 tablespoons milk |
1 (1 lb) box powdered sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1/2 cup chopped pecans |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 2. Combine butter, oil, cocoa and water in a saucepan and heat until butter is melted. 3. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking soda, sugar, milk, eggs, cinnamon and vanilla. 4. Add melted butter mixture to the flour mixture and blend. 5. Pour batter into a greased 9X13X2-inch baking pan and bake 20-25 minutes or until done. 6. While cake is still hot, ice cake. 7.
