Ingredients
1 1/2 cups (375 ml) unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 cup (180 ml) sugar
1/4 cup (60 ml) cocoa powder, sifted
1 teaspoon (5 ml) baking soda
1/4 teaspoon (1 ml) salt
1/3 cup (75 ml) canola oil
1 tablespoon (15 ml) white vinegar
1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
1 cup (250 ml) water
Preparation
With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F). With softened butter, butter a 20-cm (8-inch) square baking dish.
In the baking dish, combine flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt.
Make a large and two small wells in dry ingredients.
Pour oil into the large well. Pour vinegar in a small well and vanilla in the last one.
Pour water into baking dish and stir with a fork just enough to moisten dry ingredients.
Bake for about 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre of the cake comes out clean. Let cool on a wire rack. Cut into squares.
Serve cake with vanilla ice cream.
