An Incredible Cake

[Guest guest]

My son loves chocolait and for his birthday this year I was given

the following from a friend. Instead of chocolait one can use carob

of course if prefered. This cake is VERY good.

 

Chocolate Cake

 

Ingredients:

 

1-1/2 cup flour

1/3 cup cocoa powder

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1 cup sugar

1/2 cup vegetable oil

1 cup cold water (or ice coffee)

2 tsp vanilla extract

2 tsp vinegar

 

Preparation:

 

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Use a small brownie size pan (no

greasing required). Mix all the dry ingredients right in pan. Mix

all the wet ingredients in separate bowl except the vinegar

(important!). Add wet ingredients to dry and stir until all dry

ingredients are mixed. Add the vinegar quickly and stir in —

immediately put the pan in the oven and bake for 25 to 30 min. Cool

thoroughly.

 

Optional: after you add the vinegar, you can put some frozen

cherries, raspberries or cranberries on top of the batter (or you

can mix them in beforehand)

 

I was trying to figure out how the vineger works (to replace the

eggs) and decided it is lke the volcanos many of us made for science

class. This is the only cake recipe I've found that rises properly.

 

Enjoy!

wow! vinegar to replace eggs! what a concept! one that's new to me!

I've typically used an over-ripe banana, something I tried long

before attempting a vegan lifestyle! The over-ripe banana method has

never failed me, but now I'm achin' to try vinegar, just 'cuz it's

new! Thanks for the tip!
