Chocolate Cake!!!

I got this recipe from a non vegan friend when I was in college.  Her mom called it the "Wacky Cake" recipe because you don't use eggs yet it is moist and delicious.


    1 1/2 cups of all purpose flour
    5 Tbs of sifted cocoa
    1 tsp baking soda
    1 cup white or brown sugar
    1/2 tsp salt
    5 Tbs canola oil (can substitute with any veg. oil)
    1 Tbs white vinegar
    1 tsp vanilla extract
    1 cup ice cold water


1. Put your flour into mixing bowl, add cocoa, baking soda, sugar and salt and mix well.

2. Make three deep holes in the dry mixture. Into one, pour the oil, into the next, pour the vinegar into the next, pour the vanilla.

3. Pour the water into the bowl, over all of it.

4. Mix the wet and dry ingredients together until there aren't any more lumps and pour into a 9 inch by 9 inch baking pan, two inches deep, it doesn't even have to be greased.

5. Bake at 350F for about half an hour, test with a fork.
