Chocolate Crazy Cake
This is a recipe I grew up with. It just happens to be a Vegan recipe.
It is very easy to mix and is moist and delicious. I love recipes that
use simple pantry items! It is amazing how well the rice cooker bakes
cakes. Try it with your favorite recipe or a boxed mix. Bake no more
than 3 cups of batter per batch.
4 - 6 Servings
INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons good-quality unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt or 1/4 teaspoon iodized salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup water
1 tablespoon white, cider or wine vinegar
METHOD
1 Pour all ingredients into (ungreased) Rice Cooker Pot. Stir until
combined. A few lumps will remain and batter will be quite thin.
2 Close lid and press COOK. After a few minutes, the rice cooker will
switch to KEEP WARM even though the cake is not done. This is
normal. Keep rice cooker on KEEP WARM setting for about 10
minutes, and then press COOK again. The cooker will switch to KEEP
WARM again but this is okay. After 30 minutes or so, open and
check cake with a toothpick. When inserted slightly off-center and
then removed, moist crumbs should cling to the toothpick.
3 Remove with potholders and invert onto serving plate. Wipe out
Rice Cooker Pot and make glaze in it (recipe follows).

Chocolate Glaze for Crazy Cake
This is such an easy recipe. It uses simple pantry staples and tastes
so good. I use it for an ice cream topping, as a filling for cookies, and
a topping for waffles and even cream puffs.
