List of Ingredients


1 3/4 cup flour
1 3/4 cup sugar
1 1/4 cup water
1 1/4 teaspoon soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
2/3 cup margarine, soft
4 oz unsweetened chocolate
3 eggs


Recipe

Heat oven to 350 degrees.

Brush sides and bottom of four 9" round layer pans with butter. Bake only two layers at a time.

Measure into a large mixer bowl all ingredients except eggs. Beat at low speed to blend; beat 2 minutes at medium speed, scraping bowl frequently.

Add eggs; beat 2 minutes more. Pour 1/4 of batter into each pan; layers will be thin.

Bake 15-18 minutes or until done. Cool slightly and remove from pan; cool thoroughly on greased waxed paper to prevent sticking.

Alternate layers with chocolate filling and cream filling, ending with chocolate filling on top. Do not frost sides of torte.
