NOTES:

* Aunt Georgie's chocolate cake -- Don't cry over sour milk; make a chocolate cake out of it. This cake is from the "Farm Journal's Choice Chocolate Recipes" cookbook, and was originally posted to net.cooks by kathyd@azure.

It is moist and rich and does not need frosting Mint chocolate ice cream and a slab of this cake makes an outrageous dessert.

* To sour sweet milk, place about 1 T vinegar in a measuring cup and add enough milk to make about 1 cup.
