Edna’S Ho Ho Cake

• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 cup milk
• 2/3 cup sugar, divided
• 2/3 cup shortening
• 1/3 cup butter, softened
• 3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Dash salt
• 2 prepared 9-inch round chocolate cakes
• 1/4 cup butter, cubed
• 1/4 cup baking cocoa
• 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
• 2 to 4 tablespoons milk

1. For filling, in a small saucepan, combine flour and milk until smooth; stir in 1/3 cup sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.
2. Transfer to a large bowl; cool. Beat in the shortening, butter, vanilla, salt and remaining sugar until smooth. Spread between cake layers.
3. For glaze, melt butter and cocoa in a small saucepan. Whisk in confectioners' sugar and enough milk to achieve a drizzling consistency. Drizzle over top of cake, allowing some to drape down the sides.
