Party Cake
Serves 12
- 1 161/4 ounce package chocolate cake mix
- 1 table spoon grated orange peel
- 1 16 ounce-package confectioners sugar
- ½ cup butter or margarine softened
- ¼ cup milk
- 2 squares semi sweet chocolate, melted and cooled
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease
and flour three 9-inch-round cake pans. Prepare cake mix as package directs.
Stir in grated orange peel. Bake 20 mins, or until wooden pick inserted in
center comes out clean. Cool completely.
In a large bowl with mixer set at medium speed, beat sugar, butter, and milk
until smooth; stir in melted chocolate until well blended. Place one cake
layer on serving plate; spread top with ½ cup frosting. Repeat with remaining
cake layers. Spoon rest of frosting on sides and top of the cake.
Serving suggestion: Top each cake slice with a scoop of chocolate-fudge ice
cream and drizzle with hot fudge sauce.
