Ingredients

    Cake:

    1 cup granulated sugar
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    4 tbsp baking cocoa
    1/2 tsp salt
    2 tsp baking soda
    1 cup warm water
    1 tsp vanilla extract
    1 cup Miracle Whip, light

    Frosting:

    1/4 cup Crisco shortening
    1/2 tsp salt
    2 tsp vanilla extract
    1/4 cup skim milk
    3 cups confectioner's sugar


Directions

For the cake, mix together all dry ingredients in a large bowl. Stir in water and vanilla. Fold in Miracle Whip. Pour batter into 9x13 inch greased baking pan (glass works best) and bake in a 350 degree oven for 25-30 minutes or until fork stuck in center of cake comes out clean. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.

For frosting, combine Crisco, salt, vanilla and 1 cup of the sugar in a large bowl. Beat until smooth. Add milk and 2 cups of sugar alternately, beating after each addition until smooth. Add more sugar if too runny, more milk if too thick. Spread evenly over cake.

    Bad
    The Miracle Whip added a really bad taste to this cake, will stick with the real chocolate mayonnaise cake recipe. - 3/6/10

    Incredible!
    This cake was phenomenal! And the frosting that went along with it is one of the best I have found! I will definitely make this again! - 6/2/09
