I just tried this recipe this week, but I upped the cocoa to a full 1/4 cup and instead of water used soy milk for a richer flavor. I am definitely going to make it again!

This is a great recipe and I've tried this using different flavors. Take out the cocoa and add 1 mashed banana and it's great banana cake...mmm. or..take out the cocoa and add grated carrots and cinnamon for yummy carrot cake. TOTALLY AWESOME RECIPE!!

yum! nice to have a cake with such simple ingredients, and sooo fast to make. I made this for a birthday party and everyone scarfed it down with many compliments to the cook. I did use 1/2 cup of cocoa because i really like chocolate, and it worked out well.

I've made this before - easy and excellent results: very moist. I have also been known to add a teasp of instant coffee for a subtle "mocha" flavor...

I've been making this cake for a couple of years now. First with water when my daughter was allergic to soy and milk, then later with soymilk and now with normal milk. ALl taste good but soymilk or milk are the best. It IS sticky, but I now use a round springform tin initially with baking paper in the bottom but I didn't use anything last time and it was fine. I double the ingredients in a 22.5cm diameter tin for a 5 cm high result - baked at 160 fan forced for about 40 - 45 mins. For the Australians, all-purpose flour is just plain flour. You can skip the baking soda and baking powder if you use Self Raising flour though I find it rises slightly better with the plain + baking powders

I've been making this cake for over 30 years and it works every time. My recipie calls to grease the pan and put the dry ingredients in and stir them around. Make a hollow and put in the liquids. Stir till well mixed. No need to mess up a clean bowl. I admit I try not to scrape the bottom too much, but it doesn't seem to matter. I've had this out and it's been called "Fudge Cake" and "Rich chocolate Cake". I've been really disappointed when I think I'm getting something really exotic and it turns out to be the same old Vinegar and Oil cake I make at home and they charge $3.50 for a little, tiny slice!

Very easy to make! I added some carob powder to make it more chocolaty. I also made it into cup cakes for my daughters birthday and it was a hit!
It only made 12 cup cakes. I've served it w/ chocolate frosting and fluffy frosting and loved it both ways. You'll enjoy it!

A quick and easy, one-bowl vegan chocolate cake. Very dark, moist and tasty. Main drawback was that the cake was quite crumbly and was falling apart as I tried to cut it. I would probably only serve this cake for people with dietary restrictions. 9 servings.
