CHOCOLATE POOR MAN'S CAKE | JUST A PINCH RECIPES
My mother made this cake for us when we were growing up, and it's a family favorite. It comes from WWII era, because she grew up during that time when things were rationed, and so they had to invent recipes that didn't use milk or eggs. This is a delicious cake, & the icing goes with it perfectly. It's a small cake, and bakes up into an 8 X 8 square pan, so if you want a 13 x 9 inch, or a layer cake, double the recipe. It can also be made into cupcakes, or a bundt.

- Pour the rest of the icing over the top of the cake, using a knife to spread down the sides. Excess frosting will drip through the rack or jelly roll pan. Transfer cake immediately from the rack to a platter by sliding it carefully. Let frosting cool and set before slicing and serving.
