I offer the "Mississippi Mud Cake" recipe; it's not especially
light summertime fare, but it is good!
Materials
1 3/4 C strong coffee
1/4 C bourbon
5 oz baking chocolate
{Pretty good so far}
1 C sweet butter
2 C sugar
1 t baking soda
1/8 t salt (is this really necessary?)
2 C flour
3 eggs, slightly beaten
1 t vanilla
cocoa
Method
Butter a tube (angel food cake) pan and dust with cocoa. Heat coffee
and melt butter and chocolate in it. Cool and add bourbon and sugar;
stir to dissolve. Add sifted dry ingredients in four portions,
beating at low speed. Add eggs and vanilla. Pour into prepared pan
and bake in preheated oven at 275 F (yes) for 90 (yes) minutes or
until it tests done. Cool in the pan. Serve with a dollop of
whipped cream.rro@csu-cs.UUCP (Rod Oldehoeft) (03/08/85)
