Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Cocoa powder (unsweetened)
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Water
- 0.33 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon White vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch square baking pan.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to combine evenly.
Step 3
Make three small wells in the dry mixture. Pour the vegetable oil into one well, the vinegar into another, and the vanilla extract into the third.
Step 4
Carefully pour the water over the entire mixture and stir until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain. Do not overmix.
Step 5
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 7
Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Step 8
Optional: Dust the top with powdered sugar or frost with your favorite icing for added sweetness.
