CAKE INGREDIENTS
3 cup(s) all purpose flour
2 cup(s) sugar
6 tablespoon(s) cocoa powder
2 teaspoon(s) baking soda
1 teaspoon(s) salt
2 cup(s) water
2/3 cup(s) oil
2 teaspoon(s) white vinegar
2 teaspoon(s) vanilla extract
FLUFFY CHOCOLATE FROSTING
1 cup(s) milk
1 box(es) 3.9 oz. instant chocolate pudding or vanilla if you wish
1 - 8oz. cool whip (thawed)

Steps:

In mixing bowl, combine Flour, Sugar, Cocoa, Baking soda, and Salt.
Add the water, oil, vinegar, and vanilla.
Beat on low for 1 minute. Then Beat on medium for 1 minute.
Pour into a greased 13X9X2 in. baking pan. (I use a bundt pan.) Bake at 350 degrees 40-45 min. or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
For frosting, in mixing bowl, beat milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes with wire wisk. Then gently stir in whipped topping. Spread over cake. Cake must be refridgerated once frosting is spread on.
I get creative with this cake too...In the picture displayed I used hersheys syrup to decorate it...or before frosting it I cut the cake in half and put a layer of frosting in the middle of cake....another time I poked holes in the cake before frosting and pour hersheys syrup over the cake then continued to frost. I even used a strawberry pudding in the frosting last time to that was really good as well.
