INGREDIENTS:
- 1 1/2 cups unbleached white flour
- 1/3 cup unsweetened baking cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 1/4 cups water
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 2 teaspoons red or white vinegar
Preheat oven to 180C/350F. In a 23 centimeter / 9 inch round, 20 centimeter / 8 inch square or 23 x 15 centimeter (9 x 6 inch) rectangle baking pan, combine flour, cocoa, baking soda, salt and sugar. In a bowl, combine water, oil and vanilla. Pour liquid into dry ingredients, whisk with fork to combine. Add the vinegar – stir only until the vinegar is distributed around the batter (color variations will occur because of reaction with vinegar and baking soda – not a problem). Bake for 25-30 minutes. You can serve with spoonful of applesauce to make it like a german sacher torte.
