Crazy Lenten Cake
Description
Delicious baked treat for the whole family. They say crazy cake originated in America during the Great Depression, when ingredients were scarce and baking cakes with milk and eggs was a luxury. That's why homemakers came up with this simple yet tasty cake made from flour, cocoa, sugar, a bit of vinegar, and water. Check out my recipe.
