Magleby's Chocolate Cake

I made this for Jared's bday cake and it was yuuuuummmmmy!  Perhaps those of you who are true Magleby's die hards will be able to taste the difference of home made and Magleby's made, but  for me, there was none.  Heaven on a plate. 

PS-  I got this from the blog of a girl who used to work there...

Magleby's Chocolate Cake

1 C butter
1 C boiling water
5 T heaping cocoa
2 C flour
2 C sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs lightly beaten
1 tsp soda dissolved in a little water
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 C. sour cream

1. Mix butter, water and cocoa, add dry ingredients
2. Mix eggs, soda,  and vanilla in a seperate bowl and add to mixture
3. Gently mix in sour cream - do not overmix

Bake in two 8" or 9" floured cake pans 50 min at 350*
Remove from pans and chill (freeze - Magleby's freezes so I did too)
Cut edges off and frost

Frosting
1 can of milk chocolate frosting - add 1 cube of butter, 2 C. powdered sugar, 1 t vanilla, 1/3 C milk and mix it all - ta da!!!
