Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¾ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground cloves
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg
  • 5 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 16 ounces cream cheese frosting ((about 2 cups))
  • ¼ cup caramel sauce ((with extra for drizzle on the cake))

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In an UNGREASED 8x8 pan add the flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, ground cloves and salt.
  • Using a whisk stir all the ingredients in the pan until well-mixed. Use a small spoon to get the flour mixture out of the corners and along the edges moving it into the middle to be whisked.
  • Next using a spoon make a big well in the dry ingredients on one side of the pan and a smaller well on the other side of the pan.
  • In the large well place the vegetable oil.
  • In a smaller well pour the vinegar.
  • Next pour the cold water over all the ingredients in the pan.
  • Whisk until combined. Use a spoon to get into the corners and along the edges of the pan to move the flour mixture out to the middle to be whisked.
  • Once everything is well-combined if there are bubbles in the batter, gently tap the pan on the counter a few times.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the cake tester comes out clean. Remove from the oven to cool before frosting and serving.
