This is my mother-in-law's Ginger Comeaux's recipe for my husband's birthday cake. |
| |
| Ingredients |
| CAKE - Step 1 |
2 cups flour |
| 2 cups sugar |
dash of salt |
| 1/2 tsp baking soda |
~~~~~~~~~~ |
| CAKE Step 2 |
1 cup water |
| 2 sticks butter |
4 tsp cocoa |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
CAKE Step 3 |
| 2 eggs |
1/2 cup buttermilk |
| 1 tsp vanilla |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
FROSTING |
| 4 tsp cocoa |
6 tbsp milk |
| 1 stick butter |
1 box powdered sugar |
| 1/2 cup pecans diced |
peanut butter for cake |
|
| | | Directions | Cake:
In a bowl mix the 2C flour, 2C sugar, salt (a dash/optional), and 1/2 tsp baking soda.
In a pot mix and bring to a boil 1 C water, 2 sticks butter, and 4 tsp cocoa.
In another bowl mix the 2 eggs, 1/2 C butter milk (if you don't have any in the house mix 1/2 C milk, 1 tsp lemon juice, and 1 tsp vinegar and mix well), and 1 tsp vanilla.
Now mix all the ingredients together and put in a 13x9" baking dish sprayed with non stick cooking spray. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 45 minutes (she was unsure how long she cooked it and told me 45 min and I only cooked it for 30 so...Do the cake test by inserting a toothpick and if it comes out clean the cake is done..) after cooking, cool completely.
While cake is cooling make the frosting: In a pot mix and bring to a boil the 4 tsp cocoa, 6 tblsp milk and 1 stick butter. Remove from heat and add a box of powdered sugar; mixing well. Add the diced pecans to this mixture.
Now that cake is completely cooled, cover with a layer of peanut butter, and then pour frosting over cake.
Serve with a nice cup of Community Coffee, Mellow Joy or whatever your favorite blend is.
