Original recipe from my grandmother Sallie Ayers Kelly. It is a depression-era or before recipe. One of the simplest cake recipes I have tried. Cool cake before frosting.

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups buttermilk
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 cups white sugar
2 ½ tablespoons butter, softened
2 eggs

2 ½ tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x12-inch baking pan.
  • Stir buttermilk and baking soda together in a bowl until dissolved and foaming.
  • Beat sugar and butter together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Beat the first egg into butter mixture until completely blended; beat in the second egg until incorporated.
