The Best Ever Super Moist Chocolate Cake

This is the recipe I used for Makenna's birthday cake, it really is the best cake I've had and it is vegan too!  Try it, you might be surprised.  I frosted Makenna's cake with a vegan mint frosting.  Mmmm, so good! http://vegweb.com/index.php?topic=6686

By far the most surprisingly deeelightful cake. This recipe is great for adults and for kids ages 3 and up.


1. Put your flour into mixing bowl, add cocoa, baking soda, vegan 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 this--- making a great big mess.


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 350 degress Fahrenheit for about half an hour, test with a fork.


Enjoy this delicious cake. You will be surprised at its moistness and richness!!!!! It can be cooled and iced with your choice of icing or can be enjoyed on its own. The batter can also be used to make cupcakes!!


TIP OF THE DAY: for an instant cake, have the premeasured, premixed dry ingredients at hand, then simply add the wet ingredients when you want a fresh treat! It makes a great birthday cake! Hey, it even freezes well!
