One bowl chocolate cake recipe

There'll be no sewing for me for a couple of days. Made this cake this morning, and I thought I would share my original recipe. I've been baking this recipe for years, as it makes a fine birthday cake. The recipe contains no milk, so if you have lactose intolerance, here's a handy recipe. Just buy a margarine or shortening that contains no milk.

Cocoa Cake

3/4 cup margarine, melted

6 Tbsp cocoa powder

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 1/2 cups sugar

1 tsp baking powder

1/8 tsp salt

1 tsp baking soda

2 eggs

1 cup water

1 tsp vanilla

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt margarine. Grease 9 by 13 inch pan. Sift dry ingredients into a large bowl. Add all other ingredients and beat well. Spread in pan and bake for about 40 minutes, or until done. Cool on rack. Frost as desired.
