This eggless chocolate cake is often referred to as wacky cake. A cake with no eggs and no milk? Can it really be good? Oh yes it can! This recipe was common during the depression when ingredients were hard to come by. It is great today when you really need to run to the store but don’t want to! You can also save this one for those with allergies. It is so easy to make and oh so good.
