1 cup butter or margarine, divided use

FOR THE CHOCOLATE FUDGE FROSTING:
4 squares (1 oz each) unsweetened chocolate
1 lb powdered sugar
1/2 cup milk

Beat 1/2 cup butter until soft in large bowl. Add brown sugar and eggs; beat with mixer at high speed for 5 minutes. Beat in 1 1/2 tsp vanilla and cooled melted chocolate.
Stir in dry ingredients alternately with sour cream, beating well with a wooden spoon after each addition until batter is smooth. Stir in boiling water. (Batter will be thin.) Pour at once into prepared pans.
