This is an old recipe. It is extremely moist because of the mashed potatoes and raisins, and the texture is velvety smooth. The frosting with its touch of citrus is quite perfect with this cake.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat an 8-by-3-inch round cake pan with margarine, and line bottom with a round of parchment paper; set aside.
- In a heat-proof bowl or the top of a double boiler set over a pan of simmering water, melt the chocolate with the margarine and instant espresso, stirring until smooth and glossy. Remove bowl from pan of water, and let mixture cool slightly. Whisk in egg yolks one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites on high speed to soft peaks. With machine running, slowly add granulated sugar, beating until stiff glossy peaks form. Stir about 1/4 of the whites into chocolate base to lighten it. Gently but thoroughly fold in remaining whites until thoroughly combined.
- Pour batter into prepared cake pan. Place in a roasting pan, and pour hot water into roasting pan to come halfway up sides of cake pan. Carefully transfer to oven, and bake until top of the cake is just set in the center, about 35 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, then transfer to refrigerator for at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
- Run a paring knife around edges of cake to release from pan, and unmold (if the cake doesn't come out of pan, briefly dip bottom of cake pan in warm water; do not leave in water too long, or cake will melt). Invert cake onto serving platter, and dust top with confectioners' sugar. Serve in very thin slices.
ULTIMATE RED VELVET CAKE
Celebrate Valentine's Day with this outstanding old-fashioned cake! Its texture is fantastic thanks to the incorporation of mashed potatoes into the batter! From Becky Low, who calls the cake "an old family favorite, which dates back to Grandmother's young days. It is a red tinted chocolate cake with a smooth moist texture and a luscious flavor."

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- Grease and flour a 9x13" cake pan, or three 8" cake pans (two 9" cake pans will not contain all the batter) and set aside.
- Cream sugar and butter together; stir in eggs, vanilla and food coloring; stir in mashed potatoes; beat well.
- Whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, and cocoa.
- In a large bowl combine alternating portions of milk, flour mixture, and butter mixture (stir together one fourth the milk, one fourth the flour mixture, and one fourth the butter mixture, and repeat three times) until all ingredients are combined.
- Spread batter evenly in prepared cake pans.
- Bake in a preheated 350° oven for 30-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near center of cake comes out clean.
- NOTES: The original recipe called for sour milk (you may make your own by adding a tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice to a cup of milk) but buttermilk may be used instead. And you may use mashed fresh pototoes instead of instant ~ just be sure and get all the lumps out ;) if you do.

MASHED POTATO CHOCOLATE CAKE
I have not tried this recipe but was given this by a co-worker with a suggestion that I might need to try it "hint hint". So I have posted it so I will not lose it. It is supposed to be an extremely moist cake and I plan to use some of the instant mashed potatoes to make it. Update: I have made this cake and it is a very dense cake. Almost like a big brownie. My co-workers loved it but this is not a light, fluffy cake.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 13 by 9 inch baking pan.
- Place mashed potatoes into medium bowl. With a whisk, gradually stir in water to form a smooth mixture, do not beat mixture excessively. Cool to lukewarm.
- Sift flour, cocoa powder, coffee granules, baking soda and salt. Place chocolate chips in small bowl with about 1 Tablespoon of the sifted dry ingredients and stir well until chips are coated. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine butter, sugar and vanilla. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed. Add eggs, 2 at a time, beating in at a low speed until blended. Increase mixer speed to medium; beat 1 minute.
- At lowest speed, add sifted dry ingredients in 3 additions and mashed potato-water mixture in two additions, beginning and ending with dry ingredients and beating after each addition just until blended. Batter may still appear curdled after all ingredients have ben added -- this is okay. Remove bowl from mixer.
