Recipe



Cake: Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease and flour a 9-inch square baking pan; set aside.

Place flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder and baking soda into a medium mixing bowl; mix well. Place dry mixture into prepared pan.

Make 3 holes (or wells) in the mixture. In the first hole put canola oil, in the second hole put the vanilla, and in the third hole put vinegar. Pour the warm water over all and mix well with a wooden spoon, making sure to get the corners.

Bake for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until center springs back when lightly touched. Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack.*

Meanwhile prepare chocolate frosting. In a small bowl with an electric mixer combine confectioner's sugar with butter. Add cocoa with the hot milk and vanilla. (Add more milk if the icing is too thick, more confectioners sugar if it is too thin.)

When smooth, spread over top of cooled cake.

NOTE: This cake is cooled, iced and served from the baking pan.
