directions
Cake: Generously grease a 9 or 10" ovenproof skillet (cast iron works best) and set aside.
In a large bowl of an electric mixer, combine shortening, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, milk, chocolate, eggs and vanilla. Blend well at low speed, beat 2 minutes at medium speed, scraping sides of bowl. Spread batter into skillet. Sprinkle with pecan halves if desired.
Frosting: In a small bowl, combine chocolate syrup, warm water and sugar, mix well. Spoon frosting evenly over batter.
Bake at 350 degrees F until a wooden pick inserted in center of cake comes out clean, 40 to 50 minutes. Cool 1 to 2 minutes in skillet.
Invert pan onto serving plate. If necessary, scrape liquid frosting from inside of pan and gently smooth over top. Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream.
