    Whoopie Pie Cake(Doesn't This sound good)

    Ingredients:
    Cake:
    1 cup margarine
    2 cups sugar
    2-1/4 cups flour
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1 teaspoon salt
    1-1/4 cups buttermilk
    3 eggs
    9 tablespoons cocoa powder

    Icing:
    2 cups whole milk
    3/4 cup white flour
    2 cups granulated sugar
    8 tablespoons butter
    1 tablespoon vanilla
    1 cup solid vegetable shortening
    Directions:
    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
    2. Grease 2 9" round cake pans.
    3. Beat together the margarine and sugar. Add flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix slowly, gradually adding buttermilk. Beat 2 full minutes.
    4. Add eggs, then gradually add cocoa, beating another 2 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape the sides of the bowl.
    5. Pour batter into prepared pans and bake about 40 minutes, until center springs back when gently pushed.
    6. Cool the cake layers 5 minutes, then remove them from pans and cool them completely on a wire rack.
    7. To make the icing, pour the milk into a stainless steel saucepan over medium heat. Gradually whisk in flour until a thick paste forms. Do not scorch! Remove from stove and cool this mixture in the refrigerator.
    8. In a separate bowl, mix the sugar, butter, vanilla, and shortening. Add the cooled paste. Whip for at least 3 minutes until creamy. This makes enough icing to generously frost a 2-layer cake.

    OH does it EVER look good!  My son in law would think he died and went to Whoopie Pie heaven if I ever walked in their house carrying this!  Those are one of his favorites-and in cake form?  Think I may have found his birthday cake for next year!  Thanks cubbybear!

    Thanks Margie.  This sounds scrumptious!  I printed it off and will try it when it cools down a bit.

    I have made the frosting before and it is terrific!  You have come up with another winner my friend!
