Good evening everyone. I had to post this recipe that I came across on the Nestle website. I am sure that all of you have probably had it at one time or another. It was so strange, I had to try it, only to be filled with childhood memories as soon as I tasted it -- my mom made it all the time when we were growing up.
Anyway, it a one pan recipe and worked beautifully in the rectangular baker and would be a great September show recipe.
Crazy Cake
Estimated Times:
Preparation - 15 min | Cooking - 35 min | Yields - 15 servings
This recipe also goes by the name of “Wacky Cake”. Research tells us this very moist chocolate cake recipe was developed sometime in the 1940’s and was quite popular due to it not having eggs, butter or milk and mixing it all in the pan. A very moist, easy-to-prepare chocolate cake that goes great with a cold glass of milk!
Ingredients:
3 cups cake flour, sifted
2 cups granulated sugar
1/3 cup NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Baking Cocoa
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons white vinegar
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 cups cold water
Powdered sugar
Directions:
PREHEAT oven to 350° F.
COMBINE cake flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda and salt in ungreased 13 x 9-inch baking pan. Make 3 holes in mixture. Into the first hole, pour the vanilla extract, into the second hole, the vinegar and into the third hole, the vegetable oil. Pour cold water over all. Mix with fork or wire whisk until well blended; do not overbeat. Mixture may contain some small lumps.
BAKE for 35 to 40 minutes or until wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool completely in pan on wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar.
