Stir Crazy Cake

Recipe from Sue Phillips

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2-cup cocoa
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2-teaspoon salt
2/3-cup oil
2 tablespoons vinegar
1-tablespoon vanilla
2 cups cold coffee
1/4-cup sugar
1/2-teaspoon cinnamon

Mix flour, 1 1/2 cups sugar, cocoa, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Mix wet ingredients and whisk together with the previously mixed dry ingredients. Pour the mixture into an ungreased 13"x9"x2" metal baking pan.

Next, mix the 1/4-cup sugar and the cinnamon and sprinkle evenly over the top of the batter.

Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

(The original directions call for mixing the dry ingredients: flour, 1 ½ cups sugar, cocoa, soda, and salt in the pan, making three wells, and pouring the oil in one well, vinegar in another, and vanilla in the last one; then, pouring the coffee over all of it and mixing with a fork. I find that it is easier to just mix it in a bowl and pour it into the pan.)

    Everyone's sauce recipe is different. This one is more Sicilian and was handed down from my grandparents. The key is no exact measurements just flavor with ingredients below to taste.  In a large pot
