Preparation time: 15 minutes
Baking time: 30-35 minutes
Ready in: 45-50 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup warm water
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the chocolate ganache (optional):
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the warm water, vegetable oil, white vinegar, and vanilla extract.
- Using a whisk or electric mixer, mix the ingredients until well combined and the batter is smooth. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- If desired, prepare the chocolate ganache by heating the heavy cream in a saucepan until it begins to simmer. Remove from heat and add the semisweet chocolate chips. Stir until the chocolate is melted and the ganache is smooth.
