Western Fudge Cake
One
cake Baker's chocolate, grated (more or less according to
taste). Dissolve this in 1 1/2 cups of boiling water; while boiling
hot, add 3 teaspoons of soda; to this add 1 1/3 cups of butter and
6 cups of brown sugar. Stir well together and strain out lumps of
sugar. (Use lumps in the frosting.) Then add 1 1/2 cups of sour
milk, 6 well-beaten eggs, 3 pinches of salt, 7 1/2 cups of sifted
flour; mix well. Bake in oven not too hot, in pan lined with
greased paper. Frosting: 2 1/4 cups of brown sugar, 3/4 cup of
butter, 1 cup of hot water. Cook together until it forms soft ball
in cold water, like fudge. Beat until partly cold, flavor with
vanilla and spread on cake.
