This recipe came from both sides of the family - the only difference is Grandma Loertscher used cloves in hers.
3 c flour
2 c sugar
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1/3 c cocoa
1/2 tsp cloves
3/4 c oil
2 tbsp vinegar
2 tsp vanilla
2 c cold water
In a large bowl, whisk together dry ingredients until well mixed. Make a round impression in the middle and add liquid ingredients. Whisk together until batter is smooth and has small bubbles. Pour into a greased 9x13 pan. Bake at 375 °F for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with very small crumbs attached.
Note: use a hand whisk for this recipe (not an electric mixer). The bubbles make this light and airy, and mixing it by hand makes the best bubbles.
