       Yield: 1 servings
  
   1 3/4 c  Unsifted flour
       2 c  Sugar
       1 ts Salt
   1 1/2 ts Baking soda
   1 1/2 ts Baking powder
     3/4 c  Cocoa powder
       1 c  Milk
       2 lg Eggs; (well beaten)
     1/2 c  Vegetable oil
       2 ts Vanilla
       1 c  Boiling water
            Frosting:
       4 c  Powdered sugar; 1 lb
     1/4 ts Salt
       7 tb Cocoa powder
     1/2 c  Milk
     1/4 lb Butter or margarine
   2 1/2 ts Brandy extract; (shillings)
       1 ts Vanilla
  
   Combine all dry ingredients in a large mixer bowl and mix
   at lowest speed until blended well.  Add the remaining
   ingredients EXCEPT the water and beat at medium speed for
   two minutes.  Next, using a spoon, stir in the boiling
   water and mix well. Mixture will be very thin but this
   makes it very, very moist.  Next pour into two greased and
   floured cake pans and bake at 350 degrees for 45 to 50 mins
   or until the sides pull away from the pan and the cake
   springs back in the center. Let cool and frost: Mix
   powdered sugar, salt and cocoa on low speed in mixer bowl.
   Add milk all at once and mix followed by butter a little at
   a time. Add flavorings and beat on high speed for at least
   four minutes.
