1 cup Sugar

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

6 Tablespoons vegetable oil

1 Tablespoon white vinegar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup cold water

4 Tablespoons Butter

2 Tablespoons cocoa powder

1 ½ Cups Powdered Sugar

  3. Make three wells in the dry ingredients. Pour the oil into the first well, the vinegar into the second, and the vanilla into the third.
  4. Pour the cold water over the top of it all, then stir with a fork until well-blended.
  5. Pour into greased pan and bake at 350 for about 25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Let it cool, then frost.
  7. For the frosting: Cream together the butter, sugar, cocoa and salt until well-mixed. Add the liquid and beat until fluffy.
