Step 1
Cream together crisco, sour cream and sugar. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each. Sift together flour, soda, salt and cocoa 4 times. Add gradually to egg mixture, beating well. Add water and vanilla; mix well. Grease, flour and line cake pans with wax paper. Bake on bottom rack in two 9 inch cake pans at 350 for 30-35 minutes; or bake in one 9x13x2 inch pan for 40-45 minutes.
Frosting:
Combine all the above ingredients except vanilla in saucepan. Bring to a full, rolling boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil briskly one minute. Add vanilla and beat until thick enough to spread over cake. This will ice one sheet cake; double recipe for a layer cake.
