Crazy Cake
Popular during the wars and depression because it did not need expensive or fresh ingredients, such as eggs. We make it for our daughter who is allergic to eggs.
3 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 cup cocoa powder
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablesppons white vinegar
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups cold water
-Sift flour, sugar, salt, soda, and cocoa together into a 9 x 13 inch ungreased cake pan. Make three wells. Pour oil into one well, vinegar into second, and vanilla into third well. Pour cold water over all, and stir well with fork.
-Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 to 40 minutes, or until tooth pick inserted comes out clean. Frost with your favorite icing.
