"This is the easiest chocolate cake in the world?perhaps in the universe! You don't even need eggs, butter, or milk, and you probably have all the ingredients on hand. I use this recipe when I'm in a time crunch, because nothing needs to be creamed, beaten, or whipped; you literally just stir things together. It tastes like the best dark chocolate sponge cake you have ever eaten. You really can please all kinds of people with this one. It happens to be vegan, since there are no dairy products in it. That sounds scary to some people, so don't tell them until after they've eaten about three slices!
