CHOCOLATE DEPRESSION CAKE RECIPE | MYRECIPES

This humble yet delicious style of dairy-free chocolate cake originated during the Depression era, when ingredients like eggs, milk, and butter had to be rationed carefully. That said, there is nothing depressing about this one-bowl chocolate cake. Beyond being incredibly simple to mix up, our Chocolate Depression Cake boasts a decadent cocoa flavor and outstanding moisture. The cake is delicious as is, but to take it up a notch, try whisking up the equally easy chocolate frosting we’ve included here.

CHOCOLATE "DEPRESSION" CAKE MINIS {RECIPE} - THE CHIC LIFE

These cake minis were inspired by a version of the famous Depression Cake I found online. Why a "depression" cake? No, it's not meant to be eaten when you're sad, though I'm sure it would help pick you up (emergency chocolate anyone?). The recipe was apparently famous during the Depression because it made a moist chocolate cake without expensive ingredients like eggs or butter. The trick is the combination of baking soda and…wait for it…vinegar. The vinegar reacts with the baking soda to help the cake rise and don't worry, you can't taste it at all. Promise, kay? ;) Be sure to see the directions below for those who need their chocolate fix fast! This recipe could become your go-to! Adapted from my Carrot Cake Mini recipe with Depression-Cake-style twist inspired by this chocolate cupcake recipe by Simply Recipes *Vegetarian, Vegan*
