I have been told by Miss very capable 5.5 (going to 10) to go on the internet and find her some recipes that she can do Quote " All by myself MUM!" Unquote. So here I am asking. If anyone can help Miss 5.5 and I with some recipes that would be much appreciated.

Easiest Chocolate Cake-No Beating, No Eggs This chocolate cake is moist, cheap and easy to make. Great for large families. 3 cups flour, 2 cups sugar, 6 tabs cocoa, 1tspn salt, 2 tspns Baking Soda, 1 tspn Vanilla, 3/4 cup Oil, 2 tabs Vinegar, 2 cups water. Mix all ingredients together and bake in oven tray or similar dish at 180 for approx 30mins. Ingredients sound weird but it is absolutely brilliant, very tasty and moist, my 10 year old makes it.
I have no idea who 1st posted this one but sounds good for her to try:)
