Ingredients

1/2cup buttermilk
2cups flour, all-purpose
2large eggs
2cups sugar
1cup butter or margarine
4tablespoons cocoa powder
1cup water cold
1cup pecans chopped
1teaspoon baking soda
1teaspoon vanilla extract
1teaspoon cinnamon ground
1/4teaspoon salt
1/2cup butter
4tablespoons cocoa powder
5tablespoons evaporated milk
1teaspoon vanilla extract
1pound powdered sugar

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Sift flour and sugar, set aside. In a saucepan, bring the margarine, cocoa and water to a boil; remove from heat. In a large bowl, mix all remaining cake ingredients. Add the flour mixture and cocoa mixture, stirring well. Bake in a greased and floured 9x13 pan for 20 to 30 minutes. Check for doneness with a clean toothpick.

Ten minutes into the baking of the cake, prepare the frosting. Place the margarine, cocoa, and milk in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and add the remaining ingredients. Beat until smooth.

FROST THE CAKE AS SOON AS IT COME OUT OF THE OVEN. Let it cool a little before cutting, if you can't possibly hold out! This cake is so good, you'd eat it with one foot in the fire if you had to.
