About the Recipe
Ingredients
1 ½ cups (187 g) all-purpose flour (flour of choice)
1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar (stevia, honey, or other sweetener)
¼ cup (29.5 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon white vinegar
⅓ cup vegetable oil
1 cup (237 g) water
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper or spray with nonstick
cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda. Whisk to combine.
Add vanilla, vinegar, oil, and water to the dry ingredients and stir using a spatula or whisk until
ingredients are fully combined.
Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30-35 minutes. When an inserted toothpick is removed
with a few crumbs (not clean!) the cake is done. Let it cool while you prepare the frosting.
I make it in one bowl and a whisk, no need for a hand mixer
