Posted by : Ellen S. Cake: Matzah Layer w/Chocolate Frosting - dairy
Don't know where this recipe came from, I found it in my files clipped from some publication I can't remember. I made it and liked it; guests did too. And it's easy. MATZOH LAYER CAKE Warmed milk (enough to soak matzohs one at a time) 8 to 10 sheets matzoh frosting (recipe follows) Warm milk in a large frying pan; put in matzohs one at a time. The matzohs should be soaked, but not falling apart. Put the first matzoh in the serving dish, cover with frosting, add second matzoh, cover with filling, and continue until you've reached a desired height. Cover the cake with all remaining frosting; it should be completely covered. Chill 4 to 5 hours (overnight is better). Cut with sharp knife. CHOCOLATE FROSTING 1/4 cup butter, soft 8 ozs. cream cheese, soft 5 ozs. unsweetened chocolate, melted salt, pinch 3 cups confectioners sugar, sifted 3 Tablespoons butter 3 teaspoons vanilla extract Cream butter and cream cheese together. Add chocolate, salt, confectioners' sugar and vanilla. Mix well.
