Steps:
- (All measurements are level.) Place 4 squares of chocolate and the water in the top part of a double boiler.
- Cook and stir over boiling water until the chocolate is melted and the mixture thickens.
- Add the 1/2 cup of sugar and cook for 2 minutes.
- Cool to lukewarm.
- Sift the flour once, measure, add the baking soda and salt, and sift together three times.
- Cream the butter, adding 1-1/4 cups of sugar gradually, and cream together until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly after each is added.
- Add the milk and remaining flour to the creamed mixture, alternately in two parts each, beating after each addition until smooth.
- Then add the vanilla extract and chocolate mixture and blend.
- Bake in two greased 8- by 8- by 2-inch layer pans in a moderate oven (350 F) for 40 minutes, or until done.
- Now, to make the "Easy fudge frosting", melt 3 squares of Baker's unsweetened chocolate and tablespoons of butter over boiling water; blend.
- Add the 1-1/2 cups of sifted confectioner's sugar, light cream or top milk, and a dash of salt all at once.
- Beat until smooth.
- Place the mixture over a low flame, cook and stir until the mixture bubbles up well around the edges.
- Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla, then add the 1-1/4 cups of sifted confectioner's sugar in thirds, beating after each addition until smooth. (If necessary, place the mixture over a bowl of cold water until thick enough to spread.)
- Spread the "Easy fudge frosting" between the layers and on the top and sides of the cake.
