Mrs. Patrick’s Fudge Cake

Heat oven to 325 ºF.  

Grease and flour a 9 x 13 pan or two 8 inch layer pans (line layer pans with waxed paper before greasing and flouring).

In a mixing bowl, combine:

2 cups self-rising flour [I use White Lily]
¼  teaspoon baking soda
2 cups sugar

Blend well and set aside.

In a small saucepan, combine:

1 cup water
½ to ¾  cup cocoa [I use half regular Hershey’s and half Hershey’s Special Dark]
2 sticks butter

Bring to a boil.  Pour cocoa mixture over flour mixture and mix on low until blended.  

Add:

2 large eggs, room temperature
½ cup buttermilk, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla

Mix on medium speed one minute.

Pour into pans.  Bake until cake tests done with a toothpick.

Cool before icing.
