Wacky Depression Era Cake Recipes
GLUTEN-FREE WACKY DEPRESSION ERA CHOCOLATE CAKE
Gluten-free and vegan chocolate cake. Ideally, let it sit a few hours before covering; cover well as it dries out more quickly than other traditional cakes. I don't know why, but it seems better a day or two after it's made, perhaps because it takes that long to set up.
