At last, an easy-to-make scratch cake recipe that does not need frosting! Recipe has been modified from one given to me by a friend years ago... 6/30/07 NOTE: This is not a standard chocolate cake recipe nor a spice cake recipe. The cocoa and chocolate chips help add to the dark chocolaty flavor and appearance but the applesauce and spices give it a unique flavor addition, producing a dark, moist cake with a different flavor with the added bonus of being a no-frost cake. Ingredients:
1/2 cup oil |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
2 eggs, beaten |
2 cups flour |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 cups applesauce |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda |
4 tablespoons cocoa |
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar |
1/2 cup nuts, chopped |
3/4 cup chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. Grease and flour a 13x 9 baking pan.
2. In large mixing bowl, mix oil and 1 1/2 c sugar.
3. Add beaten eggs, flour (no need to sift), cinnamon, salt, applesauce, baking soda and cocoa and mix until well-blended.
4. Pour into pan and sprinkle with 1 1/2 T sugar, nuts (chopped walnuts or pecans) and 3/4 C chocolate chips.
5. Bake at 350 dg. for 30-40 mins, until top springs back when touched, covering with foil if top gets too brown.
6. Moist and delicious!
