I remember my mom making this cake and it is rich dark and o soo chocolately.
I've made a cake almost exactly like this for years.
It's from the depression era, I believe, or during the war, when certain ingredients, like eggs were hard to get. Anyway, it's a very good cake, you'll never miss the eggs. It rises just like a regular cake because of the vinegar and baking soda reaction....You should try it for an easy scratch cake.
Let me tell you, I was super impressed with the results!!!! This is a fabulous cake. I can't believe how good, moist and super tasty it was, but the best part is no eggs no milk no butter. It doesn't get any better then that. I give this recipe an A+++.
This recipe is great. My mom made it all the time when I was growing up-we had a very large family & this was an economical cake! I have made it also-no problems. I like to use a wire whisk to mix the liquid ingredient into the dry-but don't overbeat.
