Non-Dairy Chocolate Cake

StacieB CO's Note:

This is a very moist chocolate cake. I've also known it to be called Wacky Cake or Crazy Cake. My family likes it with Canned Milk Frosting. (kinda defeats the purpose of non-dairy :) This is very easy one dish and easy clean up. Enjoy!

Excellent cake, very yummy. I wanted to use eggs, so I cut the baking soda in half, left out the vinegar and used two eggs. It took a little longer to cook but turned out great!

I have a friend who has kids who are allergic to eggs and dairy. She gave me this recipe to try and I just found it on Zaar! My DD also is allergic to dairy so I'm always looking yummy treats for her. The only difference was that her recipe called for 2 tsp. of vinegar instead of 2 Tbsp. and hers had 2/3 c. oil instead of 3/4 c. oil. So, apparently a little more or less doesn't hurt.

After learning my newborn is allergic to both milk AND soy, the chocoholic in me panicked until I found this recipe... Its super-easy and tastes great!! (And since frosting is out with those allergies, we topped each piece with cherry pie filling and marshmallows for an extra sugar jolt. Great fresh-out-of-the-oven or cool!
