2 Eggs
2 ts Vanilla
2 c Cake flour, sifted
1 t Baking soda

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine about 1/2 cup
sugar with cocoa and boiling water, and cook over a
low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is

Cream the shortening and eggs with the remaining

dry ingredients and the buttermilk alternately.

as it is thicker.
