I made a chocolate cake.
Bean’s Chocolate Cake
2 Cups flour
2 Cups sugar
½ tsp salt
2 eggs
½ Cup buttermilk
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 stick butter
½ Cup oil
1 Cup Water
3 Tbsp cocoa (heaping)
Directions: Combine flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl and set aside. Combine baking soda and buttermilk, set aside and allow to rise. In a sauce pan, melt butter and add cocoa and stir until completely incorporated. Add oil and water and bring mixture to a simmer, remove from heat. Stir into the sugar and flour mixture and then add egg and buttermilk mixture. Add vanilla. Pour into a jelly-roll pan or 9in X 13in baking pan. Bake until done in 350o oven.
Icing:
1 stick butter
3 ½ Cups confectioners sugar
2 Tbsp milk (or enough for desired consistency)
1 tsp vanilla
I finished it off with this Icing.
Buttercream Frosting
Vanilla
1 stick butter (softened)
3 ½ Cups confectioner’s sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 Tbsp milk
Directions: Combine sugar and butter. Add vanilla and milk and beat until fluffy.
Chocolate:
1 stick butter (softened)
3 Tbsp cocoa (heaping)
3 ½ Cups confectioner’s sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 Tbsp milk
Directions: Combine butter with cocoa. Add sugar and blend. Add vanilla and milk and beat until fluffy.
*Note: may use cream, ½ AND ½ , or canned milk. Milk should be added tablespoon at a time to make sure right consistency is reached. Consistency can be thickened by adding less milk and thinned by adding more. Be careful…with confectioner’s sugar, a little liquid goes a long way.
Except I used almond flavoring instead.

I don't usually moan when I eat, but I just had a Carnation hot chocolate and a toasted croissant with butter for a very early 4am breakfast, that was good.
