DUTCH BEET CAKE

2 squares unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
1-1/2 cups sugar
2 cups sifted flour
1-1/2 t soda
1/2 t salt
3 whole eggs
1/2 t vanilla
9 oz. strained beets
1 cup cooking oil

Combine all ingredients thoroughly.  Bake in lightly greased 9 x 13 baking dish at 350 for 35 minutes.

Frosting:
Combine 1 cup firmly packed brown sugar with 1/4 cup milk and 1 cube butter or margarine.  Boil for 5 minutes.  Remove from heat and cool.  Beat until thick and creamy and spread on cake.

This is all right.  The beets surprisingly taste fine in this cake, but I wouldn't want to make it again.
