Submitted by Lily2497

1  chocolate cake mix (with pudding in the mix)
5  Tbl. flour
1-1/2 c. milk
1  c. sugar
2  sticks margarine
1  cup Crisco (do not use “butter flavored” because it is yellow)
2  tsp.  vanilla
1  egg
3  packages unsweetened chocolate (pre-melted only)
1 ¼   cups confectionery sugar

 1.      Bake cake as directed in a 9” x 13” pan.  Cool completely. 

2.      Cook the flour and milk until it thickens.  Let cool in frig until room temp or until warm to the                   touch.

3.      Cream sugar, 1 stick of the margarine (softened), the Crisco and vanilla.  Add the cooked
         mixture and beat 10 minutes.  Spread over the cake and refrigerate (to make it stiff and easier
         to frost).  

4.  For topping, melt the other stick of margarine. Set aside. Mix the egg, 1 tsp vanilla, and the
     chocolate.  Then add the melted margarine and confectionery sugar.  Spread over cake and keep
      refrigerated.
