Chocolate Depression Cake
It uses both baking powder and baking soda. If you don't have baking powder, increase the baking soda to 2 1/2 teaspoons.

Since this is flavored with unsweetened cocoa powder, the recipe uses either boiling hot water or hot coffee to help the flavor of the cocoa to bloom and give the cake a richer chocolate flavor.
Ingredients
  • ½ cup cocoa powder
  • 2 cups boiling hot water or hot coffee
  • ⅔ cup oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour*
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar
