I have used round pans and made a layered cake, but get a better response when I use a 13x9

Frosting :

2 cups sugar
1 small can evaporated milk
1 stick butter or margarine
large bag chocolate chips
1 jar marshmallow cream

Cream the sugar and milk, add butter or margarine and bring to a soft boil. 
Cook til it reaches a soft ball stage then add Chocolate chips and marshmallow cream

Beat til smooth
When cooled enough to reach a consistency that is manageable, frost the cake and swirl the top to make it look like a giant Milky Way Bar



This was my grandmother's recipe. I have it handwritten in her handwriting.
