The Ultimate Chocolate Cake from The Kosher Palette
2 cups sugar
1 and ¾ cups flour
¾ cup cocoa
1 and ½ tsp. baking soda
1 and ½ tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1 cup non-dairy creamer – I now use soy milk instead because it’s healthier
½ cup vegetable oil (I’ve started using olive oil)
2 tsp. vanilla
2 eggs
1 cup boiling water
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Add all of the ingredients together. The batter will be very loose. You can bake the cake in either a bundt pan or a 9”x13” pan. Make sure the coat the pan in baking spray, and add a lot of spray if using a bundt pan (a personal favorite!).
Bake the cake for around 45 minutes. If you baked it in a bundt pan, make sure to let it cool completely before removing it.
