Wacky Cheese Cake

I have came across this wacky cake recently. A very unique recipe.

This cake is make without milk, butter or eggs and is moist, dark and delicious.

It was believed that the cake was probably invented during World War II

when there was rationing of butter, milk, and eggs.

This cake is made for tight times with not expensive ingredients.

and yet it's also vegan, which makes its appealing for those who prefer to avoid or cannot consume dairy.

I just can't resist its rich & spongy taste.

But I thought it would be interesting to make a wacky cheese cake since my parents love cheese cake so much.

This is really a simple and easy to make recipe but tasted impressive.

So if you love chocolate & cheese and you’ve never made a wacky cake, you need to!
