Wednesday's Chow - Wacky Cake

What if I told you that you could make a delicious, moist chocolate cake without any eggs or milk? Would you say I was being a bit wacky? I promise there’s no magic involved. Except perhaps in how quickly it disappears. It’s no trick, but certainly a delicious treat. Although you’d be right in calling it ‘wacky.’

Though if you’re looking for a little magic be sure to check out my Faery Rosette entitled THAT MAGIC MOMENT with The Wild Rose Press. My heroine, Celeste is caught cookin’ in the kitchen, but it’s not a recipe for a cake she’s preparing.

What’s that smoke from? Could it be from the sparks flying between Celeste and Dane? Well, I don’t want to spoil it…you’ll have to read it to find out.

Nothing goes better with a good story than some chocolate. Enjoy one of my family’s favorite recipes for Wacky Cake.

Wacky Cake

Sift:
2 teaspoon soda
1 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons cocoa
3 cups flour
2 cups sugar

Mix:
10 tablespoons melted margarine/butter
2 teaspoons vinegar
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 cups cold water

*Mix all together and bake at 350 degree 45-55 minutes- sides will start to pull away from the pan when done and can check with a toothpick.

~Awesome with powdered sugar sprinkled over the top or your favorite icing.

Blurb for THAT MAGIC MOMENT:

Can love cross the boundaries mortals have erected to reject all that cannot be explained? As the last witch in the Turner line, Celeste doesn’t know if she’s finally found true love or if her grandma cast a love spell to continue the Turner line. Dane Johns is a man not easily forgotten, but that’s exactly what Celeste plans to do. Because he has one big flaw. He’s a mortal.
Dane Johns doesn’t know it but he’s under a spell, and Celeste Turner is the cure. Mysteriously healing his injury while captivating his heart, Dane is enchanted. Although once he discovers Celeste’s secret he must decide if he’s charmed enough to not only accept love into his life, but the world of magic.
