Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.125 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.0625 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 0.25 teaspoon White vinegar
- 0.25 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
Create a small well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the water, vegetable oil, white vinegar, and vanilla extract.
Stir the mixture until a smooth batter forms, being careful not to overmix.
Lightly grease a small Easy Bake Oven pan with a bit of oil or nonstick cooking spray.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Carefully place the pan into the Easy Bake Oven and bake according to the manufacturer’s instructions, approximately 12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the pan using oven mitts or the Easy Bake Oven tool and allow the cake to cool completely before serving.
Optionally, you can top the cooled cake with whipped cream, powdered sugar, or sprinkles for extra fun.
