    1/4 cup ( 4 tablespoons ) butter, softened
    2 cups sugar
    2 egg yolks
    1+1/2 cups milk
    2 cups flour, sifted
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    2 teaspoons salt
    2 egg whites
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 350F. In a large mixing bowl cream together the butter and sugar. In a small bowl beat the egg yolks and milk. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Alternately mix flour mixture and milk mixture into the creamed butter and sugar in small amounts; mix until a smooth batter is formed. Do not overbeat. Beat the egg whites until stiff but not dry and add to batter with the vanilla and melted chocolate. Mix well. Pour into a greased and floured 9 inch square cake pan. Bake 30 minutes. Turn out onto a rack to cool. Top with the fudge topping.

    2 ounces unsweetened chocolate
    2 cups sugar
    3/4 cup milk
    2 tablespoons light corn syrup
    1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) butter
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    Cut the chocolate into small pieces and place in a saucepan. Add the sugar, milk, corn syrup and butter. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Continue cooking and stirring 1 minute more. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Cool slightly and beat until thick. Let stand at least 5 minutes before icing the cooled cake.
