Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- To prepare cake, combine 1/2 cup cocoa and water in a small bowl; cool. Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt, stirring well with a whisk. Place granulated sugar, shortening, and 2 teaspoons vanilla in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed until well blended. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in cocoa mixture. Add flour mixture and buttermilk alternately to sugar mixture, beginning and ending with flour mixture and beating well after each addition.
- Pour batter into a 13 x 9-inch baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° 30 minutes or until the cake springs back when lightly touched. Cool in pan 10 minutes on a wire rack.
- To prepare icing, combine the powdered sugar and 3 tablespoons cocoa in a medium bowl, stirring well with a whisk. Add milk, butter, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla; stir with a whisk until smooth. Spread icing over cake.
