Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Grease and lightly flour two 8-inch square or round cake pans and set them aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Pour in the water, vegetable oil, vinegar, and vanilla extract.
Stir the mixture until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain, but do not overmix.
Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans.
Bake for 18β20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean.
Remove the cakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
Slice, serve, and enjoy your Easy Chocolate Snack Cake X Two. Optionally, dust with powdered sugar or top with frosting of your choice before serving.
