We made this for Jimmy's 4th Birthday, and instead of keeping the cake in the pan, I used parchment paper so it would slip out easily, cut it into some blocks, and used the frosting on select bits of it to stick the blocks together and then stuck his Angry Birds Star Wars figures on top! He was thrilled. (and so were his siblings)
1 1/2 cups plain flour (I used Dove's Farm Gluten Free, and added 1 tsp Xanthan gum)
1/3 cups Cadbury's cocoa powder
1 teaspoon Bicarbonate (we call this baking soda)
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 cup Sugar
Sift all the above ingredients into cake pan (square 8 inch or round 9inch)
In a 2 cup measuring cup, mix 1/2 cup sunflower oil, 1 cup cold water
2 teaspoons Vanilla extract together
Pour liquid ingredients into pan with dry ingredients and mix with small whisk
When batter is no longer lumpy, add
2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
Stir just til vinegar is evenly distributed
Bake for 25 to 30 min.
Set aside to cool
I found a recipe for chocolate coconut cream icing
