Chocolate Nut Cake
Ingredients List
- 1/4 lb Butter (or margarine)
- 1 c Icing sugar
- 2 lg Eggs
- 3/4 c Cashews or almonds

Cream together the butter and sugar. Chop the nuts and roast if desired.

mush. Dissolve cocoa in about 2 T milk, and add this and the nuts to the
creamed butter/sugar mixture.

fold this into the mixture.

Top with the remaining mixture and set in the refrigerator until hard.
NOTES:
* A no-bake graham-cracker chocolate cake This is a delicious,
easy-to-make cake that everyone enjoys. It came from an East Indian friend
of mine who said it had been in the family. It seems western so I am
uncertain of its origins.
* Depending on how you want the texture of the cake you can soak the
crackers until they are slightly softened or until they fall apart.
: Difficulty: easy to moderate.
: Time: 30 minutes preparation, several hours chilling.
: Precision: approximate measurement OK.
