2 c. flour
1 tsp. vanilla
1 c. boiling water
Frosting:.
1 lb powdered sugar
1/2 c. shortening
1/2 c. peanut butter
1 tsp. vanilla
1 egg white
Milk (enough to make a creamy frosting)

Directions

   baking soda and milk. Then add dry ingredients, cocoa and flour. Add
   vanilla and boiling water. Beat on medium speed for 2 min.
2. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 min.
   
   Frosting:.
   
3. Put powdered sugar, shortening, peanut butter, vanilla, and egg
   white in a bowl. You can mix by hand or by mixer on medium speed. As
   you start mixing, start adding milk a little at a time.
4. When your frosting is creamy but not too stiff, your frosting is done.

   on because it will warm up the frosting and start sliding off the cake.
