Isn't it funny how we want a recipe for our childhood and look for it? Sometimes it takes an hour to find it, but we finally do, or we call a relative to see if they have it for you.
That was me today. I went through my "favorite" box of recipes to find a few that I wasn't looking for. So, I moved them to the front of my stack. I love cooking and baking. Trouble is, I didn't realize till after I married my husband, that he was SO PICKY about food. Which in turn, had me cooking less and baking more. He has a sweet tooth.
I was looking for this recipe awhile. I saw someone have a little different take on this recipe and I wanted to try it. Trouble was, I couldn't find it. Since I was looking for my grandmother's Lefsa recipe, I found this!
It's easy and fun! Hard to believe fudge is at the bottom of the cake when you take it out, but it is! Love it too!
1 cp flour (all-purpose or whatever you use)
3/4 cp sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsps Cocoa (can use any you like)
2 Tbsp shortening (back in the day that was lard, but we just use shortening now)
Combine all the dry ingredients.
Cut "fat" into dry ingredients and add 1/2 cp milk. Mix until moistened and put into a square pan.
TOPPING
Mix together
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cp cocoa
2 cps HOT water

Pudding will be on the bottom of the cake. Enjoy!
