Alberta Erin may have moved away (to Alberta if you didn't catch that) but even without tasting her latest creations I'm pretty sure she is one of the best cooks I know. However, she prefers to bake and has a thing for chocolate. I think every Girls Night is just screaming for a chocolate cake! Try this one:
Easy Chocolate Cake
From ERin
1 ¾ Cups of flour
2 cups of white sugar
1 ½ tsp of baking soda
1 ½ tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 cup milk
½ cup vegetable oil
2 tsp vanilla
1 cup boiling water
Combine all dry ingredients and whisk until combined.
Add remaining (except water).
Beat for 2 minutes.
Stir in boiling water
9x13” pan at 350 degrees for 35-40 minutes
Chocolate Glaze for Cake
From ERin
1 cup of white sugar
3 tbsp cornstarch
3 tbsp cocoa
1 cup boiling water
Combine until thickened (over low heat) in a saucepan.
Add 1 tbsp of butter and a tsp of vanilla
Spread while it is still slightly warm

Add 3/4 cup of cocoa to cake batter. It is missing in the original recipe :)
