Wacky Cake
This is a really fun cake to make, so easy that even the kid's will enjoy helping. Everyone in our family loves this moist, rich chocolate cake that is surprisingly low in fat, with a glass of cold milk. Any icing will compliment it, and if properly covered, will stay fresh all week. It's mostly just a one layer cake, there's really not enough batter for a 2 layer, we bake it in a heart shape, Easter egg shape, or just a plain old square shaped pan. Cupcakes don't seem to get right, I'm not sure why.
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 Tbsp. cocoa (baking cocoa, not hot cocoa)
Sift these ingredients together right in the pan, make 3 holes and in one put...
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1 tsp. vinegar
- 5 Tbsp. oil (we use safflower for cholesterol concerns)
Pour 1 cup of cold water over everything and mix well.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes, or until it tests done. Enjoy!
