This unique recipe traditionally combines simple ingredients like flour, sugar, cocoa, and vegetable oil, all mixed without eggs or dairy, making it a vegan favorite. Often referred to as “wacky cake,” it emerged during the Great Depression when resources were scarce. While it offers a comforting sweetness, it does contain sugar and oil, so moderation is key. But don’t let that deter you; Depression Cake embodies resilience and creativity, reminding us that even in tough times, a little sweetness can go a long way.
