We are going to a cook out at my in-laws today for Father's Day. I have had a crazy day in the kitchen. Loaded Baked Potato Salad, Apple Cabbage Slaw and the Ultimate Chocolate Cake.
For the potato salad, boil eggs and potatoes as usual for potato salad, add mayonnaise and mustard, shredded cheese, a spoonful of sour cream, and bacon bits. Mix well and top with chives.
For the slaw, chopped cabbage, shredded carrot, a chopped apple, 3/4 c mayo, 1/4 vinegar and a tbsp sugar. Mix well and chill.
Here is the tricky recipe. (it is so worth the effort)
Sift together 2 c each sugar and self rising flour and 1 t cinnamon.
In a pan, melt 2 sticks butter with 4 T cocoa, pour over flour and mix well. Add 1/2 c milk and 2 eggs. Mix till smooth, pour into 9x13 pan and bake at 350 for 45 minutes.
Icing
In a pan, bring 1 stick butter, 4 T cocoa and 6 T milk to a boil. Removed from hear and add 3 1/2 c (add more as needed to make and icing consistency) powdered sugar and 1 T vanilla. Mix well. Pour over cake while still warm.
