Crazy Cake
Rating (0 Rated)
Crazy good and crazy easy, this cake was popular during the Depression when key cake ingredients were rationed. Since it doesn’t contain dairy or eggs, it’s perfect for vegans or those looking to avoid dietary cholesterol.

2 cups sugar

1 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons baking soda

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

3/4 cup vegetable oil

2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar
