One Pan Chocolate Cake

If you are like me there are times that I just crave chocolate cake only to find out that I do not have everything to make a cake, not enough milk or eggs. Well here is a recipe that needs no eggs or milk and can be mixed and baked all in the same pan. I don't remember where I got this recipe from originally as I have it on a well used recipe card now, but I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

One Pan Cake

2 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup cocoa powder
2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2/3 cups vegetable oil

1 Tbsp vanilla
2 cups cold coffe or water
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
