Recipe(tried): Jiffy Devil's Food Cake (no milk, eggs, or butter)

This cake is delicious and moist without eggs or milk. My son requested it for HIS birthday cake on his 8th birthday! I was glad to do it for him. A cake anyone can eat without worries or guilt!

JIFFY DEVIL'S FOOD CAKE

1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
3 tbsp canola oil
1 tbsp white vinegar
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup cold water

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Sift flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt into an ungreased 8x8 inch glass baking dish. Make three holes in the dry ingredients. Pour oil in one, vinegar in another and vanilla in the other. Pour water over all and mix thoroughly with a fork to moisten. You can pick up the dish and look at it from underneath to see if all of the flour has been moistened.

Bake 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

For "frosting," you can sprinkle with a few chocolate chips, let melt and spread. Or you can dust the cake with powdered sugar. The cake is good with chocolate chips or other additions stirred into the batter as well.

Yields 9 large squares, at 146 calories each without frosting
