- 1-⅓ cup Water
- ½ cups Vegetable Oil
- 3 whole Large Eggs
- _____
- FOR THE WHITE FILLING:

Preparation
Prepare and bake the cake according to directions on box, using a sheet pan half or a 15x10x1 inch jelly roll pan. Bake for about 20 minutes until cake tests done. Cool.
White filling: Combine flour and milk. Cook over medium heat stirring constantly until thickened. Let cool. In mixing bowl, combine sugar, shortening, and 1 stick of butter. Beat well. Add cooled flour and milk mixture and beat until light and fluffy. Spread over cooled cake and refrigerate 30 minutes.
Fudge icing: Melt chocolate in the microwave on 30-second intervals, stirring between intervals to make sure it doesn’t scorch. Beat chocolate, water, 1 stick of softened butter, vanilla, and powdered sugar together. Add more water, a teaspoon at a time, if necessary, to make a consistency that can be easily spread. Spread over white filling and refrigerate.
Assembly: Spread cooled cake with white filling and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Then, spread with fudge icing and refrigerate until ready to serve.
