Devil's Food Cake

This is a rich, moist, chocolaty cake!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
1 cup sour milk ( 1 cup milk + 2 tsp white vinegar or lemon juice OR 1 cup buttermilk)
2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/2 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup boiling water
1 tsp baking soda

Prepare sour milk and let sit for 5 minutes. I used buttermilk.
In a large bowl, mix together all ingredients except the water and baking soda. Mix until better is smooth. Add the soda to the boiling water. (kids love this part because it bubbles)
Add soda/water mix to the batter. Mix well--batter will be thin.
Pour the batter into a greased and floured 9x13 pan and bake for 35-45 minutes or until done. Cool and then frost with your favorite frosting. Serves 12
