Chocolate Depression Cake

This delicious old time classic cake is one of the best chocolate cakes you’ll ever eat!… With a Whipped Chocolate Buttercream frosting, it’s a cake you’ll take to function’s every time!

I’m so glad I found you! You’re the realest lady I’ve seen yet during the kind of cooking I was raised up on and I love your kitchen. It’s just look like my Mama’s kitchen with pots and pans hanging and shelves to hold things, because there’s not enough storage in the kitchen and you’re just a sweet lady. I’m not the “star struck” kind of person, but you’re someone that I feel like I could hang out with, eat and gain a lot of weight! 😅Continue to be a blessing! ❤❤❤

We could do that lol 😂… Thanks so much for joining me in the kitchen!😊♥️

I love this recipe , I will make this for church , I tell my husband I’m watching Talli Faye ,or Talli Fayes making this or that , I make a bread pudding that nobody makes but me and it’s in the Cotten Country cookbook the name of it is Simple Bread Pudding , it’s so easy and if you like Egg custard you’ll love it , and no young people makes egg custard and never have tasted it but it’s comfort food

[@inapickle9153]

This is a wonderful recipe that is great for those of us who can't eat eggs. I also love Pennsylvania shoo fly cake. Blessings 💞💞💞

I love me some good ole butter cream , and not that crisco kind , I can’t wait to try this one , but this weekend I’m doing your pickled okra and pickles ❤from SA

[@sandy-mr5gj]

I agree with you about yucky crisco in cake frosting. I can taste the gross.

[@lauriegreer6836]

OH MY GOODNESS IS RIGHT!!!! The frosting should be outlawed!!!!

[@pamelaj25]

That's funny. Right before you were fixing to put that cake in the oven, I was thinking that I couldn't remember any leavening. We all been there. Lol

Well to be honest..... I feel like we must be sisters from another mother... I LOVE yoúr 'Talli Faye' messses and boo boos cause you're just you.... and able to laugh at yourself... You're amazing and being authentic is the best there is! Im a total mess in the kitchen... and i believe all the best cooks are. You make smile girlfriend... The only thing better would be to be perched at your bar watchin you cook! Big hugs and blessings my friend...

[@justpiddlin1470]

There is an adjustment screw on your mixer so you can move the whisk up or down .. no more unmixed bits in the bottom 😊

[@maryf409]

I make this a lot. Especially with the price of eggs!! My mother used to always make this growing up for our lunches with just powdered sugar on top. I usually just cheat and buy a cream cheese icing for it. I never grease the pan. The recipe of my Mother’s didn’t call for it. It doesn’t stick. I just use a metal spatula and comes out just fine. And her recipe calls for just plain old vegetable oil. I’ll be trying your chocolate icing next time I make it though! It looks delicious!! You can make a vanilla cake but just omitting the cocoa and adding an extra teaspoon of vanilla. My mother used to make it that way for strawberry shortcake. Have a blessed day!

[@inthekitchenwithtallifaye4724]

Oh I love this!!.. You’re putting ideas in my head! Lol… I knew about the powdered sugar thing but this icing recipe is absolutely delicious!!.. Thank you for sharing knowledge!😊

I love you Talli Faye❣️I talk to you all the time. You've become my TV best friend. Love all your recipes😋 I'm from Pelham, Al... I'm gonna make that depression cake and take it to church❣️❣️❣️

[@sandy-mr5gj]

Love the look of depression choc cake, it looks like the old days. Plus I like NOT crazy sweet. Ty Talli. One thing I need to ask, your butter sticks look so much shorter than mine from Kroger, if you'd mention the ounces it would be helpful.

[@inthekitchenwithtallifaye4724]

@@sandy-mr5gj These butter 🧈 sticks I have freak people out lol 😂… they’re the same!.. they’re shorter but fatter than the regular sticks 🤣🤣… they have the same weight and measurements as the long, thin sticks… I had to show y’all on a video not too long ago… So don’t worry about the measurements being different from what I tell you… they’re the same 😊♥️😊

[@Straderjayne]

It’s 100 degrees here, I use butter all the margarine are shot up with hydrogen

[@maryannedeering1663]

Yummmmmy ❤ and eggless. With the price of eggs now days🥴

[@jennynowicki]

Hey Ms.Talli! I am tickled pink to have found your channel! Have you ever made a cake like this with mayonnaise? It is also a no eggs recipe.

[@jennynowicki]

Ok, never mind! It has eggs!🙃

[@avacat5092]

Hey friends 🤗 chocolate 🍫 depression cake 🍰 mini love ❤️

[@WaterfallFW]

I was wondering if that cake was going to be gummy because there’s no eggs in it. I made my son a vegan cake with applesauce and no eggs and oil. It turned out a little gummy, it was a box white cake. He loved it. He hadn’t had cake in a year.

[@lynnclark4208]

Can I have a bite of that? 😊😊😊😊

[@inthekitchenwithtallifaye4724]

It’s sooo good!

[@joycebelk4634]

So here I am at 1:30am watching this video. You just got finished stirring all the ingredients together. I’m so confused as to why you had to do 3 holes for the liquids then stir it all together. My years of cooking screams don’t trust this recipe but then I remember I’m trusting you Ms Talli Faye not the recipe. Waiting patiently here for the verdict on the almost forgotten baking powder. I’d probably just not bothers and hope it was a new strand of brownies. Lol Also I’m thinking that was almost a plain/vanilla cake since chocolate chips came to the market the same year the Great Depression ended. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

[@inthekitchenwithtallifaye4724]

@@joycebelk4634 lol 😂… I thought the same thing when I first seen this done… the other name for this is called CRAZY CAKE!🤣… Even though I don’t understand it myself, it’s delicious!!… Worthy of trying it at least once!😊♥️

[@joycebelk4634]

Oh I will for sure but I’ll have to fight myself to keep those ingredients out of my mixer bowl. I’m going to try to trust the process since I’ve just watched you finish the cake.

[@AnneluvsKatz]

You have myMother and Grandmother rolling in their graves 😮😂… if they’d have seen you wipe that sugar onto the floor🤯🤯🤯. You could’ve eaten dinner off their floors lol. I did not inherit that clean gene haha!
