It's been quite a while since I've posted on the blog - no promises, but I'd like to get back at it.  I will start with this one

The Grandkid's Favorite Chocolate Cake

1 3/4 cup sugar
2/3 cup shortening
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 cup flour
1 1/2 tsp soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup milk
1/2 cup cocoa
1/2 cup water
Bake @ 375 degrees for 30-35 minutes

Fudge Marshmallow Topping
1 1/2 cup sugar
1 cube butter
1/2 cup canned milk
bring to a boil

add 1 1/3 cup chocolate chips
after the cake is removed from the oven and while still hot - cover with miniature marshmallows and top with hot topping.

It always tastes better if you make it a day ahead and let it sit (the cake gets moister)
My mom gets requests from the Grandkids for this one & we adult kids love it too!!
