Miracle Cake  (Chocolate)
 
This story goes that this recipe was requested by a guest at the Waldorf Astoria Restaurant... back east somewhere? New York? 
 
And the chef supplied it with a billing for $1,000.  The guest was advised she had to pay the bill as it was a proprietary recipe & he had requested and received it.
 
flour a 9x13: pan   275 degrees @ 50 minutes
 
4 c. flour sifted (or 3.5+ unsifted)
2 c sugar
5 T cocoa
1 Tbs & 1 tsp baking soda
 
Sift these together; set aside,  then add:
2 c. water
1.5 cups Miracle Whip salad dressing
2 tsp vanilla
 
It is very moist and needs no frosting... only a light glaze over the top, if wanted
 
Original recipe was 1/2 of this recipe & made a very small cake (only baked 35 min)
