I finally tried this dessert today. I added some chocolate chips though to make my partner happier. He couldn't believe this recipe did not have eggs in it.
You know how you occasionally forget until the last minute that you were supposed to bring a dish to the potluck or bake a cake for your kid's school thing? This is the cake for those moments. It will take you longer to think of another cake than it will to get this one in the oven. Will it be the best cake ever? No. But it will be very good and it will be homemade. And it will show that you care, even though you kind of forgot. - Amanda Hesser
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons corn oil
1 cup cold water
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
Confectioners' sugar for dusting
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-inch round cake pan. Whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, sugar, and salt.
- Whisk together the oil, water, vanilla, and vinegar in a large bowl. Whisk in the dry ingredients, blending until completely lump-free. Pour into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top springs back when pressed gently.
- Cool on a rack before removing from the pan and dusting with confectioners' sugar (or frosting, if desired),
