Crazy Cake

Are you having an unexpected house full of teenagers and there isn't much in the fridge to serve? Have no fear........CRAZY CAKE IS HERE! Serve it warm with ice cream or by itself. Dare I say it gets better the next day with the coconut frosting, that is if there are any leftovers.


This chocolate cake is as easy as cake mix and is made with out eggs or milk, still resulting in a very moist and tasty cake. Frost with your favorite frosting. My favorite frostings are just below the cake recipe.

Crazy Cake

1 1/2 c. flour
1 c. sugar
1 tsp. baking soda
3 tbsp. heaping cocoa powder
1/2 c. oil
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tbsp. vinegar
1 c. cold water

Dump all ingredients into a bowl, mix well. Pour into 8x8 greased pan and bake at 350 for 30-35 minutes. Can be easily doubled for a 9x13 pan.

I have made the cake without cocoa, and used butterscotch pudding for the frosting, with good results as well.

Pudding Frosting

1 pkg any flavour pudding
(I used chocolate for chocolate cake)
1 pkg dream whip
1 1/2 c. cold milk

Beat together well until thick and creamy.

Burnt Coconut Frosting (my personal favorite)

1/3 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. unsweetened coconut
3 Tbsp. butter
2 Tbsp. milk
3 tbsp. corn syrup
1/2 tsp. vanilla

Place in saucepan, bring to boil.
Boil for 3 minutes.
Pour over cake and brown under broiler.
