DEVIL'S FOOD CAKE (1904)

The Blue Grass Cook Book
Compiled by Minnie C. Fox (1904)



DEVIL'S FOOD CAKE
Miss Bashford


4 ounces of chocolate,

1/2 pint of milk,

1/2 cup of butter,

1 1/2 cups of sugar,

4 eggs,

3 cups of flour,

2 teaspoonfuls of baking-powder.


Put chocolate in milk and cook in double-boiler till smooth and thick (about 5 minutes), and stand aside to cool. Beat the butter to a cream, and add gradually the sugar and yolks of eggs; then the cold chocolate mixture, and add the flour, which has been sifted with the baking-powder. Add the well-beaten whites of eggs and flavor with vanilla. Bake in layers and put together with soft icing, to which add chopped figs or nuts.
