It came from the depression years when butter, milk, and eggs were difficult to come by. I always double the recipe, however, since a small one is not quite enough. It is incredible warm out of the oven and doesn't even need frosting and stays moist and delicious for several days. And when I do frost it, we prefer dark chocolate frosting. When I made it a few days ago, I also made a white cake batter (simple cake mix) and alternated scoops of chocolate and vanilla batter into cupcake papers for beautiful and deliciously moist marble cupcakes. Try it!

I finally made the Wacky Cake and it is pretty good. Really I was surprised because I never had luck with “dump cake “ and thought this would be another fail. I did spray the pan but the next time I will try it without spray.

Did they grease the baking dish before they added all of the ingredients? The recipe on the website says to grease the baking dish, but I don't see any grease on her baking dish in this video.

Mom received the recipe in the late 60's early 70's. We didn't use the powdered sugar though. We would grate up one of those giant Hershey bars and sprinkle the chocolate over the cake fresh out of the oven. It would melt then re harden for a great topping. Oh the memories. 😋👍
