Isabelle Jurinjak's Magic No-Egg Chocolate Cake

This chocolate cake is magical. It has no eggs and an unusual ingredient: vinegar! You don't even taste the vinegar, and it makes a beautiful, moist cake every time. The frosting is a delectable brown sugar frosting made on the stovetop and poured on while the cake is warm out of the oven.

Ingredients

Cake:

  • 3 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 3/4 cups vegetable oil
  • 2 Tablespoons vinegar
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 6 Tablespoons cocoa
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Frosting

  • 1 cups brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 16 ounces powdered sugar approximately 1 box

Instructions

  1. For the cake - mix all ingredients together until smooth and pour into a greased 9 x 13 pan (or 24 muffin tins). Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

  2. For the frosting - over medium heat, combine the brown sugar, butter, and milk in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Cool slightly and add about one box of powdered sugar. Mix with a wire whisk until desired consistency. Add more milk if it becomes too thick.

  3. Remove cake from oven and pour frosting over the top, spreading evenly with a knife. We like our cake with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
