Sounds strange but it is dark, rich, moist and chocolatey.
Great with vanilla ice cream when still warm or slice the cake in half length wise fill with ice cream and slice into your own ice cream sandwiches. Wrap individually and freeze.
1 1/2 cups shifted flour
3 T. Coco
1 t. baking soda
1 C. sugar
1/2 t. salt
5 T. vegetable oil
1 T. vinegar - white
1 t. vanilla
1 C. water
Put your sifted flour back in the sifter, add it to the cocoa, baking soda, sugar, and salt, and sift this right into a greased square cake pan, about 9x9x1 inches. Now you make three grooves or holes, in the dry mixture. Into one, pour the oil, into the next, the vinegar, in the next the vanilla. Now pour the cold water over it all. Mix with a spoon until it's nearly smooth and you can't see the flour. Bake at 350 degrees for half an hour.
I also made an extra mix of the dry ingredients and stored it in a mason jar. So next time the cake craving hit just needed to dump the dry mix into a greased pan and add the wet ingredients.
There is no set path, follow your heart stay the course. |

Sounds wonderful! I'm going to give it a try and the idea for storing dry ingredients in a jar would make it a great gift as well.
