Preparation
|
Stir the cocoa and boiling water together in a small bowl until
|
smooth and set aside. Preheat the oven to 350 Degrees F. Grease and
|
flour two 9-inch round baking pans. In a larger mixer bowl, cream the
|
shortening, sugar and vanilla together until light and fluffy. Add
|
the eggs and beat until well blended. Combine the flour, baking soda
|
and salt, blending well. Add, alternately with the buttermilk, to the
|
creamed mixture. Blend in the cocoa mixture, mixing well. Pour the
|
batter into the prepared pans, dividing evenly. Bake for 35 to 40
|
minutes or until a wooden pick, inserted in the center, comes out
|
clean. Cool for 10 minutes in the pans then remove the cakes and
|
cool, until cold, on wire racks. Frost with One Bowl Buttercream
|
frosting and garnish as desired.
