There are no eggs in this chocolate wacky cake, and mixing is easy.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon vinegar
  • 5 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 cup cold water

Preparation:

In a large mixing bowl, mix flour, sugar, cocoa, soda and salt. Make three wells in the flour mixture. In one put vanilla; in another the vinegar, and in the third the oil. Pour the cold water over the mixture and stir until moistened. Pour into 8 x 8-inch pan. Bake at 350°F. oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until it springs back when touched lightly.

Nothing Crazy hereJune 21, 2009By ToniMarieGarrett
"I learned how to make this cake in high school when I was tutoring EH kids for extra credit. I am home all day cooking for the week and thought gee I would really like to bake something but then quickly remembered that I did not have any eggs and that is when, once again, I thought of this cake. The cake is easy, light and a winner with any crowd anytime. A Tip - if you have any lace lying around the house place over the top of your finished cake and lightly dust over it with powdered sugar for a nice finishing touch!"
