Simple Chocolate Cake

Bad weather means I have more time for cooking as outdoor activities are limited. On the request of the beloved I prepared the Simple Chocolate Cake with excellent Chocolate Frosting with Soy Cream. This time with a little help of webveg.com;)

I. Simple Chocolate Cake
For the cake you need:
- dry ingredients: 3 cups flour, 2 cups brown sugar, 6 T cocoa, 2 t baking soda, 1 t salt &
- wet ingredients: 2 cups water, 3/4 cup sunflower oil, 2 t vinegar, 1 T vanilla.

1) Preheat the oven on 180 C.
2) Mix separately the dry and the wet ingredients. Then pour the wet ingredients in the dry and mix thoroughly. Put the mixture in the baking dish. Bake for 45 minutes.
3) Let the cake cool.

II. Chocolate Frosting
Ingredients:
- 1 cup sugar, 6 T flour (or corn starch), 4 T cocoa and 1/2 t salt
- 2 cup water
- 2 T sunflower oil, 1 t vanilla

1) Mix the sugar, flour, cocoa and salt. Add the water and stir very well. Heat over medium fire until it gets thick and starts to boil. Boil for 1-2 minutes (don't boil it too long - it will get like taffy)
2) Remove from the heat. Stir in the oil and vanilla. Cool and spread on the cooled cake.

III. Decoration with the Soy Cream
Just use your imagination;) You can put on the cake also some fruits, strawberries for example. And now indulge yourself .... ;)
