Ingredients:  
3 Cups Flour
2 Cups Sugar
½ Cup Cocoa
2 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Salt
2 Cups Water
¾ Cup Oil
2 T Vinegar
2 tsp Vanilla

Mix all ingredients and put in a 9 x 13 pan. Bake 34-40 min at 350º

Frosting

1/2 Cup White Crisco
4 Tablespoons Butter
1 Cup Sugar
1 1/2 T Vanilla
Mix all ingredients and slowly add 2/3 Cup warm Milk while beating on high.

This frosting doesn't come together in high humidity but I bet if you but your bowl in the freezer 1 hour or more before you made it, it would work.
