the buttermilk. Stir until well blended. Cool thoroughly. Mik
flour, baking powder, soda and salt. Cream butter, and gradualy
beat in the remaining 1 1/2 cups sugar. Continue beating until
light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly after
each. Blend in about one-fourth of the flour mixture, then add
the chocolate vanilla. Alternately add the remaining flour and

I used a cream cheese frosting on the outside and filled the space
between the layers with the chocolate frosting recipe on the
Hershey's cocoa box.
