Today I got to make dinner for a friend whose little boy is allergic to eggs and I wanted to include a dessert. I suddenly remembered Grandma Heisey had a recipe for snack cake that was eggless. I jazzed it up a little by adding walnuts and chocolate chips. The frosting recipe is straight off the can of Hershey's cocoa powder.
