    List of Ingredients




    1 1/2 cups flaked coconut
    1/4 cup water
    1/2 cup semisweet chocolate morsels melted
    1 2/3 cups sugar
    2/3 cup shortening
    1 1/3 cups milk
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    2 3/4 cups self-rising flour
    4 egg whites
    1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
    Chocolate Fudge Frosting (below)

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 350°F.  Spray a 9-inch springform pan with non-stick vegetable spray. In a small bowl, combine coconut, water, and chocolate, mixing well; set aside.

    In a large mixing bowl, cream sugar and shortening until light and fluffy.  In a small bowl, combine milk and vanilla; add alternately with flour to creamed mixture, beating well after each addition.  In a medium bowl, beat egg whites with cream of tartar until stiff; fold into the batter. 

    Pour half the batter into prepared springform pan; spoon half the coconut mixture by teaspoonfuls onto the batter.  With a knife, gently swirl to marble.  Repeat with remaining batter and coconut mixture.

    Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.  Cool in pan for 10 minutes.  Remove from pan; cool completely on a wire rack.  Spread Chocolate Fudge Frosting over the top and sides of the cake.

    CHOCOLATE FUDGE FROSTING
    1 1-ounce square unsweetened chocolate
    3 tablespoons butter or margarine
    1/4 cup hot water
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    2 to 3 cups confectioners’ sugar
    In a medium saucepan, combine chocolate, butter, water, and vanilla.  Cook, stirring constantly, over low heat until mixture boils.  Remove from heat.  Beat in enough confectioners’ sugar to make of spreading consistency.
