I just made this recipe tonight and it is the best dessert I have ever made. I've had the recipe for years, I got it from The Beaver Defenders, a NJ animal rights group. Super-easy to make as well which is a huge plus.

Fine Minute Chocolate Cake

1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cup unsifted flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup cocoa
1 tsp baking soda
1 Tblsp lemon juice
1/2 cup oil
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup cold water

Mix ingredients in order given. Pour into ungreased square cake pan. Bake at 350 for 35 minutes.

For cupcakes: bake 15-20 minutes

I served it with

Glossy Chocolate Frosting

3 Tblsp shortening ( I used butter flavored Earth Balance sticks)
3 squares ( 1ounce each) unsweetened chocolate
2 cups powdered sugar (Hain makes organic,vegan p sugar)
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 cup soymilk
1 tsp vanilla

Melt shortening and chocolate in saucepan or double boiler over low heat. Once melted, stir in remaining ingredients, beat until smooth. Place frosting pan in bowl of ice and water and continue beating until smooth and of spreading consistency.

Enjoy!!
