combine and let cool:
3/4 c boiling water
3/4 c cocoa powder

1 3/4 c sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp cream of tartar
beat until very stiff
frosting:
1 small pkg vanilla instant pudding (french)
1/4 c powdered sugar
1 c milk
cool whip (3/4 of small container), thawed

Steps:

  • 1. Combine water and cocoa. Let cool.
  • 2. Sift together in a bowl flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. Make a well and add cooking oil, the cooled cocoa mixture, egg yolks and vanilla. Beat until smooth.
  • 3. In a large mixing bowl beat until very stiff egg whites and cream of tartar.

  • 6. Pour into an ungreased 10 inch tube pan. Bake in a 325 degree oven for 65 to 70 minutes or until cake tests done.
  • 7. ~Cake removed from oven. Ready to be inverted.~
  • 8. Invert pan. Let hang until cool. When cool remove from pan and put on cake plate.
  • 9. I have frosted the cake with a simple frosting. In a large bowl combine pudding, milk and powdered sugar. Beat until smooth. Place in freezer to set/thicken pudding about 5 minutes. Fold in Cool Whip. Frost cake. THIS FROSTING NEEDS TO BE REFRIGERATED!
