Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil or canola oil
- 1 cup water (or strong coffee for enhanced chocolate flavor)
- 1 1/2 cups chocolate frosting (Use store bought frosting or your own favorite chocolate frosting.)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350º Fahrenheit.
- Place flour, sugar, cocoa powder, salt, baking soda, and chocolate chips into an ungreased 8x8 inch pan. (In the video, I fold in the chocolate chips after the batter is mostly mixed. You can mix the cake either way you'd like, just don't overmix.) 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour 1 cup granulated sugar 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder ½ teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 cup mini chocolate chips
- Stir all the dry ingredients together and make a well in the center of the pan.
- Pour in the wet ingredints: the vanilla, vinegar, vegetable oil, and water into well and whisk together until just combined. Do not overmix. It’s okay to have some lumps. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar 1/3 cup vegetable oil 1 cup water
- Place in oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool cake completely.
- Frost with your favorite frosting or dust with powdered sugar. Cut into squares and serve. Enjoy! 1 1/2 cups chocolate frosting

Notes
- Your crazy chocolate cake can be stored at room temperature for up to 5-7 days in an airtight container. If your frosting contains butter, you may want to consider placing it in the refrigerator, but it’s not entirely necessary.
- Can you freeze this crazy cake? Yes! This cake also freezes well. You can freeze your crazy cake for up to 3 months in the freezer for best quality.
- The calories shown are based on the cake being cut into 9 pieces, with 1 serving being 1 slice of frosted cake.
