Cockeyed Cake With Sugar Topping Recipes

COCKEYED CAKE

Steps:

• Put flour in sifter (ok its an old recipe so I know most of us don't own one any more. Any bowl will do or I just place right in pan) Add cocoa, baking soda, sugar and salt.
• Sift into greased 9x9x2" pan.
• Make 3 holes in the mixture.
• Pour oil in one, vinegar in the next and vanilla in the last.
• Pour cold water over all.
• Beat until nearly smooth and no flour shows.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

COCKEYED CAKE WITH SUGAR TOPPING

Steps:

• Pour flour into the sifter, add to it the cocoa, soda, sugar and salt; sift this into a greased square pan, about 9x9x2 inches. Now make 3 holes in the dry mixture. Into one, pour the oil, into the next, the vinegar; into the last, the vanilla. Now pour the cold water over it all. You'll feel as if you are making a mud pies, but beat with a spoon until it's nearly smoth and you can't see the flour.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Then take the cake out and let is cool slightly. Do not turn the oven off !
• Sugar Topping: Mix all topping ingredients together in a bowl. Then spread on cake and put back into the oven till the frosting bubbles on the whole top of the cake.
