I would make this for my daughters as an afterschool treat. It produces a moist, dense, delicious cake. Since it's baked in a 9x9 pan, there's not a whole lot of cake around to tempt me for too long! Make your own frosting or use store-bought. Or simply dust it powdered sugar!
Ingredients:
1 cup quick-cooking oats
8 tablespoons margarine
1 1/2 cups water, boiling
2 eggs
1/2 cup cocoa
1 cup flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. In a medium bowl, place the oats and the margarine.
2. Pour the boiling water over the oats & margarine and allow to sit for 20 minutes.
3. Add the eggs to the oatmeal mixture and blend together.
4. Sift together the dry ingredients and add to the wet mixture; stir well.
5. Pour into a greased 9x9 cake pan and bake at 375 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes or until cake tests done.
6. Cool completely and frost.
