       1/2 c  Butter; in cube   
         1 c  (packed) brown sugar   
       1/4 c  Evaporated milk   
         2 c  Confectioners' sugar   
       1/2 ts Vanilla extract   
       
     In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and   
     fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well   
     after each addition. Add potatoes and vanilla. Combine   
     the flour, cocoa and baking soda; gradually add to   
     creamed mixture alternately with milk, beating well   
     after each addition. Stir in nuts.   
        
     Pour into 2 greased and floured 9-in. round baking pans.   
     Bake @ 350ºF/175ºC until a toothpick inserted in the   
     center comes out clean, 25-30 minutes. Cool for 10   
     minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool   
     completely.   
        
     For icing, in a saucepan over low heat, cook butter and   
     brown sugar until butter is melted and mixture is   
     smooth. Stir in evaporated milk; bring to a boil,   
     stirring constantly. Remove from the heat; cool to room   
     temperature. Stir in confectioners' sugar and vanilla   
     until smooth. Spread between layers and over top of   
     cake.
