Wash day cake

It's a snow day here in Arkansas so I thought I'd share a good snow day recipe.

Here is a good snow day treat you probably have everything needed to make it 

Wash Day Cake 
3c. Flour
2c. Sugar
6T. Cocoa powder
2 teaspoon soda
2 teaspoon baking powder
2/3c. Oil
2c. Water
2.T vinegar
2 teaspoons vanilla

Combine all dry ingredients set aside. Combine all wet ingredients mix together until smooth. 

Pour into greased 9x13 
(put pan on cookie sheet sometimes it boils over)

Icing: 
1c. Sugar
1c. Brown sugar
4T coca
Sprinkle over batter
Pour 2 cup cold water all
Bake 350 until firm

If you let it cool all the way and flip it over it'll be iced, I can never wait that long so the icing is still runny. 

Easy Caramel Recipe

Thanks to my WONDERFUL Sister in-law Sarah for this recipe it sounds so yummy and soooo easy!!

This is made with a can of sweetened condensed milk.

1.Immerse closed can on its side in a pot of water and bring to the boil.
2. Leave on a simmer or light boil for 2 to 2and a half hours, topping up with water as needed. Be careful and don’t let the water dry out.
3. Remove from heat and let cool thoroughly before opening can. Don’t open the can while its still hot. The condensed milk should be thick and a nice caramel color.
