My Grandmother called “depression cake” because the recipe is from the time of the Great Depression, when things like eggs, milk, butter and sugar were really expensive.

1 1/2 cups all sifted flour -210 g
3/4 cup sugar-150 g
1/4 cocoa-40 g
1 tsp baking soda-7 g
1/4 tsp salt-3 g
1 cup water-240 ml
1/3 cup oil-80 ml
1 tsp vanilla extract -7 ml
1 Tbsp lemon juice – 15 ml
Method of preparation:
In a bowl, combine the sugar, sifted flour, sifted cocoa and baking soda.
In a another bowl combine water, oil, lemon juice, and vanilla.
Add liquids to dry ingredients and mix. Pour the mixture in the 20 cm/8 inches pan.
Bake 30-35 min in a preheated oven at 180 C/350 F.
Decorate it with chocolate and walnuts, coconut or dust with powdered sugar.
