At this point we ran out of cocoa powder, and I couldn't make chocolate frosting, so instead, we fudged and created our own concoction:
about...
3/4 c. butter/shortening
1.5 cups powdered sugar
1/2 t water
1/2 t vanilla
beat it for quite a while, until the butter makes it fluffy.
add a little more milk (1-2 T) until smooth
and then add 2 scoops of peanut butter! to taste.

it turned out delicious.
I made the cake earlier this summer for my Dad's birthday on June 20. I made it again today for a staff party hosted, welcoming all of us back to Prague. It was a good time, and we met lots of the new staff.
