Steps:
- Step 1 Preheat Oven to 375ยน Step 2 Cream sugar, butter, and vegetable shortening until fluffy. Step 3 Add eggs one at a time, until well combined. Step 4 Add flour and milk alternatively to batter. Add vanilla. Stir well. Step 5 Oil and flour two nine inch cake pans. Spread one cup of the batter in each pan and bake 10 to 12 minutes until lightly browned. When done, remove layers from pans and place on racks until cool. Wash cake pans after baking each layer, and continue preparing layers until all 12 are complete. When all layers are baked, prepare icing. Step 6 In a large saucepan, mix sugar and cocoa. Stir in butter and evaporated milk. Bring to a rolling boil. Reduce heat and cook about two Minutes stirring constantly. Remove from heat and add vanilla. Stir well. Step 7 Place first layer of cake on a large platter. Spread icing generously over the top. Add another layer and cover with icing. Continue until all twelve layers are iced. (You may want to insert a few toothpicks into the layers to keep them from shifting during this stage. Just remember to remove them as you go!) Apply remaining icing to the sides and chill slightly before serving.
