2. add to first mixture and beat well.
3. you can spread this between the two layers of cake, or cut each layer in half and you would have 3 layers of filling instead of one.

5. melt butter and add cocoa powder and blend.add 1/4 cup boiling water and powdered sugar til thick enough -
6. pour over cake - make it thin enough so it will drip over the edges.
7. I have really taken some liberties with this recipe for filling - I have baked different flavored cakes.and use the filling from this.and made glaze co-ordinate with cake flavor.this is a great all purpose recipe - many ways to use this idea.
