Happy Fourth of July!
I discovered an amazing recipe for chocolate cake. Although it's not my #1 chocolate cake, it's pretty darn good, and you can't beat it for speed. With my 5 year old assistant, I was able to put this cake in the oven 7 minutes after getting out the recipe. It's crazy fast. It's also a beautiful thing because you don't need to use a bowl (and it's vegan).
Crazy Fast Chocolate Cake
Grease a 9x13 pan. Add the following dry ingredients, spreading them around:
3 c. flour
2 c. sugar (or a little less)
6 T. cocoa
1 teas. salt
2 teas. baking soda
Make 3 wells in the dry ingredients. (I don't know if this is necessary, but that's what the directions say). Add the following wet ingredients (one in each well):
1/2 c. vegetable oil
2 T. red wine vinegar (I used white wine vinegar, and it was fine)
2 teas. vanilla
Over the top of everything, pour:
2 c. water
Stir it up until just mixed. Bake at 350 for 45 to 50 minutes. Frost with frosting that's not from a can!

Well it's not 'Mama's Chocolate Cake' but it sounds more moist. We always seem to get a very dry cake...I think we're missing an ingredient.
Mama's chocolate cake (a family recipe) was always better the 2nd day. I think it might absorb moisture from the atmosphere. Try this recipe out. It's really easy & good, and all you have to wash is the pan :)
