Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 180 grams all-purpose flour
- 200 grams granulated sugar
- 35 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 240 milliliters water
- 80 milliliters vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Choose an ungreased 20x20 cm (8x8-inch) square baking pan or a 23 cm (9-inch) round baking pan.
Sift the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt directly into the baking pan. Use a fork or spoon to mix the dry ingredients evenly across the pan.
Make three small wells in the dry mixture—one larger and two smaller.
Pour the vegetable oil into the largest well, the vinegar into one of the smaller wells, and the vanilla extract into the other smaller well.
Slowly pour the water over the top of all the ingredients in the pan.
Using a fork, gently stir everything together until the batter is smooth and no dry patches remain. Be careful not to overmix.
Smooth the surface of the batter with the back of the spoon or fork.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before slicing.
Serve plain, dusted with powdered sugar, or topped with whipped cream or frosting of your choice.
