Answer 2

here's a couple good ones, i've tried em & my family loved em
Chocolate Cake
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
3 tablespoons cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon plain unflavored distilled vinegar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup cold water
Preheat oven to 350 F. Coat a square 9-by-9-inch pan with canola oil spray. Or, if cupcakes are desired instead of a cake, spray interior of a muffin pan with the spray, set it aside and continue with the recipe using a lightly oil-sprayed pan or bowl to mix the batter.In the center of the pan, gently pour in the flours, cocoa, baking soda, sugar and salt to make a large mound. With the back of a tablespoon, make 3 hollows in the mound. Pour the oil into one, vinegar into another and vanilla into the third. Pour the cold water over all. Mix well with a spoon until the flour cannot be seen and the mixture is almost smooth. The cake is done when a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.Cool the cake on a rack for about 10 minutes, and for cupcakes, about 5 minutes, before turning out of the pan and onto the rack to finish cooling. Cupcakes should easily drop out of the pan and onto the rack. For the cake, slip a thin-bladed knife between the cake and sides of the pan to help loosen it. Place the rack on top of the cake so that the legs are facing up. Holding the rack firmly against the pan, invert the pan and gently shake the cake out and onto the rack. Cool the cake completely before serving.

1 cup cranberries
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/2 cup quick-cooking rolled oats
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Frozen fruit frappe
servings: 6

• 2 (16-ounce) cans sliced or halved pears in heavy syrup

Using a very sharp knife, slice into 1-inch-thick slices, then into large chunks. Place the chunks in the bowl of a food processor. Slice the bananas and add to the processor along with the lime juice and rum. Process, pulsing on and off until smooth. Serve immediately or transfer to a storage container and freeze until ready to serve.
