Vegan Chocolate Cake

Hey one and all! Today I am attempting to make VeGan ChOcoLaTe CaKe. As many of you know, my Mom and Dad are now on a Vegan Diet, and they are coming to stay with me! So I am getting ready! Plus, chocolate cake sounded good. I will let you know how it goes. Wish me luck!

This is not it, but I hope this is what it looks like! (wink wink). Minus the whipped cream of course!

Fantastic (very rich) Chocolate Cake

Ingredients:

1 and a half cups unbleached white flour

1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 cup sugar

half a cup of mixed, chopped nuts (optional)

1/2 cup vegetable oil

half a cup cold water or soy milk

half a cup of orange juice

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

2 tablespoons vinegar

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Sift dry ingredients into 8" square or 9" round baking pan. Mix liquids (except vinegar) and whisk into dry. When batter is smooth, add vinegar and stir quickly, until it is evenly distributed. Put it in the oven, don't let it stand around (that has something to do with the vinegar) Bake for 25-30 minutes...or longer until done. This cake is great served with Provamel's soya dream (cream like).
