Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 c flour
1 c sugar
1/2 c cocoa, unsweetened
1/4 tsp salt (don't heap this, use a scant 1/4 tsp.)
2 tsp baking soda
COMBINE THE ABOVE INGREDIENTS IN A SIFTER AND SIFT IT ALL AT ONCE INTO A MIXING BOWL
THEN ADD
1 c miracle whip
1 c cold water
1 tsp vanilla

Steps:

  • 1. When all the ingredients are mixed together, stir well. Do not over beat.
  • 2. Pour into a buttered and floured cake pan. You can use 2 small round pans or an 8 x 10. If you use a dark glass pan, watch the heat.
  • 3. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes or until done. Don't be tempted to overcook this cake, and don't poke it unless you think it is about done or it will fall. Let cool completely before frosting. I put it in the freezer for several hours before frosting. If you use the fudge frosting, make sure the cake is back to about room temperature before you pour the frosting on.
  • 4. We like it best served chilled.

Cake is so moist and the frosting is so creamy. We love this cake. Don't worry about the vodka if you don't have any just use vanilla. Since it isn't cooked the alcohol doesn't cook out but you only use 1 ounce for the whole frosting.

MIRACLE CAKE

A very thin batter, but does what it should. This is like a custard. This recipe is for a 9x13 pan. Cut it in half for an 8 or 9 inch square pan. Very tasty.

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 eggs, separated
10 1/2 oz sugar
2 Tbsp water
2 stick butter, melted
4 c lukewarm milk
1 1/2 c flour

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 325. Grease 9 x 13 pan. Set aside. Beat egg whites until stiff. Set aside. Beat egg yolk and sugar until light. Add water and melted butter. Gradually add flour. Mix well. Then add the lukewarm milk. Mix well.
  • 2. Fold one third of egg whites into egg yolk mixture. Fold until well incorporated. Fold in remaining egg whites, one third at a time. I had to use my whisk and gently break up some of the egg whites. Batter will be thin.
  • 3. Pour into greased pan. Bake at 325 for 60-70 minutes or until golden brown. After 60 minutes, mine kind of jiggled in the middle, so I did another ten minutes. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
