Chocolate Snack Cake



This easy light chocolate snack cake is so moist and delicious that icing isn't necessary.  It's perfect with a scoop of ice cream, a drizzle of chocolate syrup...or just by itself!


Chocolate Snack Cake

1/4 cup butter, melted
1 cup water
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup flour
1 cup sugar
3 tbsp. baking cocoa
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  In a mixing bowl, mix the butter and water.  Add the egg and vanilla; stir well and set aside.  In a separate bowl, combine flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.  Add to the egg mixture, and beat on medium speed of electric mixer for 2 minutes.  Batter will be thin.

Pour into a greased 8-in. square baker.  Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.  Cool on a wire rack.  When completely cool, dust with powdered sugar.
