Ingredients:  
CAKE:
2 c. Sugar
2 c. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 c. butter
3/4 c. water
5 T. cocoa powder
1/2 c. buttermilk (see tip in body of post)
2 eggs
1 tsp. baking soda

5 T. Cocoa Powder
1 lb. powdered sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 c. chopped walnuts
Directions:
Directions:
Prepare mini muffin tins either line with mini paper liners or use a baking spray that has flour in it. Spray pans liberally. Preheat oven to 350º.

CAKE:
Mix dry ingredients in large bowl. Combine water, cocoa powder, and butter in heavy sauce pan, bring to a boil. Remove from heat, pour over dry ingredients, lightly mix together. Add milk and eggs. Blend well. Batter will be thin.
With a small 1 Tablespoon cookie scoop place one scoop of batter in each muffin cup. Bake in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until cakes bounce back when lightly touched. Remove from oven. If liners were not used let bites cool for about 10 minuets then using the tip of a knife gently remove from the pan and place on wire rack to cool completely.

FROSTING:
In a medium sauce pan heat milk, butter and cocoa until bubbly, mix in sugar and vanilla until smooth. Add in nuts and blend until incorporated. Carefully spoon about a tablespoon of frosting over each bite and let frosting set if you can before eating! Enjoy!
