Dairy Free, Egg Free Chocolate Cake

Elisa #4's Note:

Surprisingly very good and very easy! It takes just minutes to whip up in the pan. It also takes minutes to disappear!

• Total Time: 24 mins
• Prep Time: 4 mins
• Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 6

• 1 2⁄3; cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup sugar (or packed brown sugar)
• ½ cup cocoa
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup water
• ½ cup vegetable oil (not olive)
• 1 teaspoon white vinegar
• ½ teaspoon vanilla (or coffee powder)

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 350°.
2. Mix flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda and salt with fork in an ungreased square pan. (Add the coffee powder here if you've opted for that flavor.).
3. Mix in remaining ingredients. Bake 20-25 minutes (but I don't mind it if it's still a bit moist in the middle).
4. Either top with powdered sugar for a snacking cake or melt bittersweet chocolate with a bit of honey to make a fancy glaze.

My kids are gluten free in addition to vegan. I used Bob's Red Mill all purpose baking flour and xanthan gum as suggested with the flour. I make this cake for all my kids birthdays now.

I baked my cake for 30 min and the edges were burned and the middle was still way under done. Was totally disappointed with this cake!!!!!

This was a very good cake... i doubled it and it was totally great. It was a bit spongie and I had a lot of compliaments from my guests and they had doubles and scraped the plate!! I thought it was like the Cadbury cake... I am a celiac and used different flour so this may have been the reason mine was so yummy and moistured. 100 out of a 100. You have got to try it. Amazing that you dont have to use eggs or milk since I had no eggs and dessert to make!
