Here's the delicious recipe.





2 c. flour


2 c. sugar





2 cubes butter


1 c. water

1/2 c. sour cream


2 eggs


1 tsp. soda


1 tsp. vanilla and mix together.





Pour in cookie sheet with sides (jelly roll pan). Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes.





HINTS: Any kind of cocoa or chocolate drink mix will work for the cocoa, depending how light or dark you want it. I've found my favorite to be Hershey's European process chocolate. Yogurt, or, I think, buttermilk, can be substituted for the sour cream. If you don't want the icing, you can just sprinkle with powdered sugar
