Instructions
00:00 Introduction
00:31 Preheat oven to 350F (175C) and lightly grease an 8x8 glass baking dish¹.
00:36 In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
01:14 Make a well in the center of the bowl and add the water, oil, vinegar, and vanilla extract.
01:45 Whisk or stir all ingredients together until batter is smooth.
02:01 Pour batter into prepared baking dish and bake on 350F (175C) for about 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Do not over-bake or the cake will be dry.
03:03 Allow cake to cool before frosting.
ICING:
03:24 To prepare the icing, whisk together sugar, cocoa powder, water, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth. Icing should be a thick and fudgy consistency, but should be spread-able. If it is too thick, add additional water one teaspoon at a time until the proper consistency is achieved.
04:51 Once cake has cooled, gently spread frosting evenly overtop. Enjoy!
Notes
¹If you bake this in an aluminum baking dish it might cause the cake to have a metallic taste. If you only have this type of dish, you can line the pan with parchment paper to prevent this.
This cake may instead be baked in a 9x9 or 11x7 baking dish, but keep an eye on it as the baking time will be reduced.
You can make this a vanilla cake by leaving out the cocoa powder.
STORING: Store covered at room temperature for up to 5 days. Cake will keep even longer if stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator by the fridge may dry out the cake a bit.

Vanilla Depression Cake Recipe - this makes two cakes to be stacked together, obviously halve the recipe if you just want one smaller cake!
3 Cups of Plain Flour
2 Cups of Sugar
2 Teaspoons of Baking Soda
1 Teaspoon of Salt
Mix dry ingredients together, then add:
2 Teaspoons of White Vinegar
3 Teaspoons of Vanilla Essence
10 Tablespoons of Oil (I just used Canola)
2 Cups of Water
Mix all ingredients together, pour into two 20cm greased cake tins and bake in a preheated oven at 175oC for 35 minutes, leaving to cool on the bench afterwards.
Icing can be whatever you like, but I recommend a buttercream icing (which I'm terrible at making so won't submit a recipe just yet - give me time!)
