The vinegar reacts with the baking soda and helps the cake rise, and although this has a pretty thin batter, the cake <em>will<\/em> rise.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>This recipe makes two <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3EHd6cO\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">9-inch round cakes<\/a>\u00a0for a nice layered vanilla crazy cake, as pictured. If you\u2019d like to cut the recipe in half and make only one layer, simply follow the same directions, but cut the ingredients in half.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Don\u2019t forget to grease your cake pans first.\u00a0I even like to line the bottom with <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3qBapV8\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">parchment paper<\/a> as well to avoid any sticking.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>For a chocolate-flavored cake, add 1\/2 cup of <a href=\"https:\/\/shopstyle.it\/l\/bRKiv\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">unsweetened cocoa powder<\/a> when adding in the dry ingredients to produce a delicious chocolate-y variation. Some readers also like replacing the water with brewed coffee when making a rich chocolate cake. \u2615\ufe0f<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Feel free to <a href=\"https:\/\/shopstyle.it\/l\/bRKhd\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">reduce the sugar<\/a> from 2 cups to 1 1\/2 cups or even try just 1 cup of sugar. Once you frost the vanilla crazy cake, you won\u2019t even be able to tell!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>You could <a href=\"https:\/\/shopstyle.it\/l\/bRKiO\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">use avocado oil<\/a> or vegetable oil.
