Yum Yum Cake

By Amanda Campbell

This is an old recipe from my mom. Not sure it's origin. We make it when we want a sweet but are too poor.

1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
3 tsp cocoa
5 tbsp. veg oil
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 tsp vinegar
1 cup cold water

Measure flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, and salt together. Make a hole in the mix and add oil and vinegar, add water. Mix well. Bake for 30 min at 350 degrees. Put a lot of powdered sugar on top. Yumm. I like to make it in a smaller pan than a 9x13 for to make it higher but mom likes it crusty in a 9x13...so it's up to you.
