Easy Chocolate Cake

I was trying to look for a new Chocolate cake recipe.  I was intrigued when I found this one using brown sugar.  Since the Video, I have made this recipe many times and it has become a favorite.  Heres the recipe.

Ingredients:
(2) cups of all purpose white flour
(1) cup of milk (Skim no fat milk)
(3/4) cup of white sugar
(3/4) cup of brown sugar
(2) eggs
(3/4) cups of butter
(1) tablespoon of Vinegar (replaces the (1) cup of buttermilk in the original recipe)
(2) teaspoons of Vanilla extract
(3/4) cup of cocoa powder
(1) teaspoon of baking powder
(1 1/2 teaspoon) baking soda
(1/2) teaspoon of salt

DIRECTIONS:
First, this will look like its a lot of ingredients.  But the table would clear up fast as you use the ingredients.  First the dry ingredients: cocoa powder, flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda we mix them well together.  Set aside.  Next in another bowl, mix in the sugars and the butter.  Cream together with an electric mixer.  Next, add in the eggs one at a time and beat them in.  After that would go in the Vanilla.  Next, alternately beat in the flour, the milk until everything is combined.  Add in the vinegar.  The Vinegar replaces the buttermilk if you do not have buttermilk on hand.  Next, spray down 2 round cake pans.  Spread out the batter evenly amongst the pans.  Give the pans a tap to tap the air out so the cake will bake flat.  Put the cake in a 325 degrees oven for about half an hr until the cake tests done.  This cake comes together so quickly even tho there is so much ingredients.  This is even quicker than using a chocolate cake mix.  I hope you will give this recipe a try.
