All In One Pan Chocolate Cake Recipe

ingredients

3 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups water
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Frosting
1/3 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/3 cup solid vegetable shortening
2/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk, heated to almost boiling

directions

Heat oven to 350 degrees F.

Sift flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda and salt into a 9x13-inch baking pan. Add water, oil, vinegar and vanilla. Mix with a large rubber spatula until smooth, taking care to mix ingredients along edges.

Bake until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Cool completely on wire rack.

FROSTING: Combine butter and shortening in a food processor or mixing bowl. Add sugar and vanilla. Mix until smooth, about 2 minutes. Slowly drizzle in milk. Beat 2 minutes in food processor or 7-10 minutes with a mixer, until smooth, satiny and fluffy. Chill just 20 minutes before frosting.
