Cake
1 1/2 cups unbleached white flour
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup cold water or 1 cup brewed coffee
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 tablespoons vinegar
Glaze
1/2 lb bittersweet chocolate
3/4 cup hot water or 3/4 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1
Preheat the oven to 375u00b0F.
2
Sift the flour, cocoa, baking soda, salt and sugar into an ungreased 8 inch square or 9 inch round baking tin.
3
In a 2 cup measuring cup, measure and mix the oil, water or coffee and vanilla.
4
Pour the liquid ingredients into the baking tin and mix the batter with a fork or small whisk.
5
When the batter is smooth, add the vinegar and stir quickly. Pale swirls will occur where the vinegar and baking soda react. Stir just until the vinegar is even distributed throughout the batter.
6
Bake for 25-30 minutes. Set aside the cake to cool.
7
If you are making the glaze, reset the oven to 300u00b0F.

Melt the chocolate in small ovenproof bowl or heavy skillet in the oven for about 15 minutes. Stir the hot liquid and vanilla into the chocolate until smooth.
9
Spoon the glaze over the cooled cake. Refrigerate the glazed cake for a minimum of 30 minutes before serving.
