It has been a recipe in our family forever. At every family get together this is a must. Super moist, best when served slightly warm. Makes me want a piece just thinking about it….

- Icing
- Bring to boil butter, cocoa and milk. Remove from heat and add vanilla and powdered sugar. Pour over warm cake.
- * I don’t like my icing as sweet as the recipe calls for. Just add to your taste.
- **Sometimes the icing will get little powdered sugar lumps in it, I put it back on the heat and cook for a minute. This icing is a bit running and it is meant to be this way. ENJOY!
