Wacky Cake

Ingredients:

2 c. sugar
3 c. flour
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. baking soda
6 Tblsp. unsweetened cocoa
2 c. water
2 Tblsp. white vinegar

12 Tblsp. margarine

Preheat oven to 350. In a large bowl, combine sugar, flour, salt, cocoa and baking soda. Add water and vinegar. Place margarine in 9"x13" pan and put in warming oven to allow it to melt. Once margarine is melted, pour batter into pan and mix margarine into the cake right in the pan. Bake for 35 minutes. When cool, frost if desired or sprinkle with powdered sugar.


My sister Shari made this for us once and my husband, who typically doesn't like desserts, really liked it. She started making it for his birthday each year. One year it was even
decorated with a Batman logo. It is a delicious, moist chocolate cake.A big piece with a glass of cold milk - yum!
