Amazing Solan Family Chocolate Cake (Aka 3-Hole Cake)

• 3 cups flour
• 2 cups sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 6 tablespoons baking cocoa
• 3/4 cup oil
• 2 cups cold water
• 2 tablespoons white vinegar
• 1 tablespoon vanilla
• Mocha Glaze
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar (optional)
• 2 tablespoons baking cocoa (optional)
• 1/2 teaspoon decaf instant coffee (optional)
• 1 - 1 1/2 tablespoon milk, of choice (works with regular, soy or rice or whatever) (optional)
• 1/4 teaspoon almond extract (I usually use almond, but have tried & like coconut, orig. glaze recipe calls for peppermint) (optional)

1. Instructions for Cake:
2. Mix dry ingredients together in large bowl.
3. Mix wet ingredients together in separate bowl.
4. Add wet to dry a little at a time, stirring as you add.
5. Pour batter into WELL-GREASED bundt cake pan (well-greased is key--this is a sticky cake; I use Pam with great results), bake at 350 for 35-40 minute.
6. Serving suggestions: with fresh whipped cream& strawberries, or drizzle with warm caramel or Kahlua, or glaze with mocha glaze (or some combo thereof!).
7. Instructions for Glaze:
8. Mix dry ingredients together in bowl.
9. Dissolve coffee in 1 tablespoon of milk; add extract.
10. Whisk coffee liquid into dry ingredients; whisk until all blended and if needed, add 1/2 tablespoon more milk.
11. USE GLAZE IMMEDIATELY OVER CAKE. It will harden quickly.
