Who doesn’t love chocolate cake?  It has gotten me through some very tough kid induced mental/emotional breakdowns.  I always say the richer & more chocolate the better.  This cake is definitely  a rich chocolate flavor.  Perfect for hiding in the bathroom (while tiny fingers wiggle under the door) & drowning your sorrows.  It might even give you the strength to make it through another day!

Cake:

• 1 TBS vanilla
• 1 1/4 milk
• 1 large egg
• 1/3 C vegetable oil
• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder

• 2 C flour

Frosting:

• 8 oz cream cheese
• 1/3 C butter
• 3 C powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1/2 C unsweetened coco powder

What to do:

2. In a large bowl whisk together the coco powder, sugar, flour, & baking powder.
3. Add in the milk, egg, vegetable oil, & vanilla.  Mix at medium speed until well blended.
4. Pour into the baking pan & bake for 3o-35 minutes.

This is just what your sweet tooth needs!!!!
