How to Prepare Chocolate Depression Cake
Heat the oven to 375º F and lightly grease two 9-inch cake pans with butter or non-stick spray.
Mix flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a big bowl. Then, add water, oil, vinegar, coffee, and vanilla extract.
Mix until there are no lumps, then pour the mixture evenly into the cake pans that have been greased.
Put in the oven and bake for 24-26 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
How to Prepare Icing
While the cake is baking, prepare the frosting by mixing powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and salt (if desired) in a big bowl or with a mixer.
Mix water, softened butter, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Put in extra sugar to make the frosting thicker or add more water to make it thinner.
Take the cake out of the oven and allow it to cool down before adding the frosting.
