Cockeyed Cake A.K.A The Lazy-Ass Cake

Although already known under many names such as cockeyed, wacky, crazy or depression cake, I am officially rechristening this cake as the LAZY ASS CAKE. It’s so simple to make, it’s almost foolproof!

All the cake needs is a minute or two of whisking, it bakes in the same pan the ingredients are mixed in, and comes out of the oven dark, moist and chocolatey in 30 minutes. No need to grease the baking pan even!

You can enjoy a slice plain or easily take it up a notch with a sprinkling of powdered sugar for a totally vegan treat (no eggs!). If you want something more sinful and indulgent, a generous slathering of canned frosting will do the trick.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups flour
• 1 cup sugar
• 3 tablespoons cocoa
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup water
