Birfday Cake
Rich's mom made him a birthday cake yesterday! It was moist-n-delicious. Here's her recipe. And don't forget the love!
Easy Vegan Chocolate Cake:
3 cups flour
2 cups sugar
6 tablespoons cocoa
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups water (I used 1 cup juice from canned cherries and 1 cup water)
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons vinegar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare pan (I used a bundt pan).
Mix dry ingredients first. Once the mixture is even, well mixed, mix in wet ingredients. Continue mixing until you obtain an even batter (no lumps). Pour into a cake pan and bake for approximately 55 minutes.
Drizzle:
1 tablespoon margarine
1 tablespoon Hershey's cocoa
1 tablespoon water
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1. Microwave margarine in small microwave-safe bowl at MEDIUM (50%) 20 to 30 seconds until melted. Stir in cocoa and water. Microwave at MEDIUM 15 to 30 seconds or just until mixture is hot, slightly thickened and smooth when stirred. Do no boil.
2. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla, beating with whisk until smooth. If necessary, add additional water, a few drops at a time, until of desired consistency or add more sugar if needed. Be sure to whisk until smooth. About 1/4 cup glaze.
