Chocolate Covered Yellow Cake
(also called better than sex cake)

Layers

1 box Duncan Hines Butter Recipe Golden cake Mix (no subs)
Mix as directed, except use milk, and add a teaspoon of vanilla flavoring.
Also, grease pans with Butter before you flour them. This adds butter
flavor to layers. Don't leave cake layers in oven too long so they won't dry out.

Frosting

Ingredients

3 cups sugar
1 cup Carnation canned milk (not low fat)
l stick Blue Bonnet (not low fat or any other)
1/2 cup Hershey's Cocoa (powdered kind)

Directions

Mix together these ingredients.
Do not cook on high heat.
When it starts to bubble really good,
start timing and cook(stirring the whole time) for seven
or eight minutes. I sometimes turn mine down a little while cooking. Add
vanilla flavoring, probably a teaspoon and a half.

To begin cooling, I place my pan in cool
water with a few ice cubes. Stir
for three or four minutes. You can't do this too long, because it will get
too cool to frost cake. This takes practice. You can't rush this frosting.
I always use all of it on my four layers.

Also, I continue stirring during the cooling.

Don't get frustrated when it doesn' t
work right the very first time, this recipe
takes alot of practice, but it is well worth it!
