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.
This is a moment of great uncertainty. Here’s what you can do about it.

This is a moment of great uncertainty for the news media, for the Jewish people, and for our sacred democracy. It is a time of confusion and declining trust in public institutions. An era in which we need humans to report facts, conduct investigations that hold power to account, tell stories that matter and share honest discourse on all that divides us.
With no paywall or subscriptions, the Forward is entirely supported by readers like you. Every dollar you give this Passover is invested in the future of the Forward — and telling the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
The Forward doesn’t rely on funding from institutions like governments or your local Jewish federation. There are thousands of readers like you who give us $18 or $36 or $100 each month or year.
