My Favorite Chocolate Cake Recipe

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.

Line your pan(s) with parchment paper or cupcake papers and spray lightly with spray oil. This recipe makes (1) 8 to 9 inch round or square or 12 cupcakes or (2) 6 inch round cakes.

Sift together the flour, sugar, salt, baking soda and cocoa. You can also just stir them well with a wire whisk.

Add in the chips and stir until distributed.

Add in the water, vinegar, oil and vanilla. Mix with a whisk or wooden spoon until just combined.

Pour or spoon into pans and bake.

-30 minutes for large round, 20-25 for cupcakes or 6 inch rounds. Check for doneness with a wood skewer and remove when only a few crumbs cling to the skewer.

Cool for 5-10 minutes and then invert onto a plate or remove and cool on a wire rack.
