This recipe was given to me when I was needing to make a fancy cake. It has become a favorite. The cake is so moist and the frosting is delicious! This cake will make you look like you went to a lot of work to make but really didn't. Ingredients:
2 cups sugar |
3 cups flour |
4 tablespoons cocoa |
2 teaspoons baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup vegetable oil |
2 tablespoons vinegar |
2 cups water |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
4 tablespoons flour |
1 cup milk |
1/2 cup margarine |
1/2 cup crisco |
1 cup sugar |
2 teaspoons vanilla |
Directions:
1. Mix together sugar, flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt.
2. Add oil, vinegar, water and vanilla.
3. Mix on medium speed for 2 minutes.
4. Pour into greased 9x13pan or(2)8 inch round pans. It will be runny.
5. Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes.
6. Let cool.
7. For frosting, cook flour and milk together until thick. Let cool completely.
8. In large bowl beat margarine and crisco for 4 minutes.
9. Add sugar and beat 4 minutes.
10. Stir in cooled cooked mixture and vanilla and beat another 4 minutes.
11. Frost when cake is cool. I make swirls and add either chocolate shavings or a cut up strawberry on top to make it look fancy.
12. Enjoy!
