For sour milk, mix milk and vinegar in small bowl. Set aside for five minutes.
In large bowl, mix together all ingredients except the water and baking soda. Mix until
batter is smooth. Add the soda to the boiling water ( kids love this part because it
bubbles). Add soda/water mixture to batter. Mix well -- batter will be thin.
Pour batter into well greased and floured 9x13 inch pan and bake at 350 degrees for 35
to 45 minutes or until middle is set.
If using round cake pans, grease pans very well and cut a round of wax paper to fit
inside the bottom of the pans to prevent cake from sticking when removed. Let cool five
minutes in pans before turning out onto a wire rack. Serves 12.
Add a few drops of mint extract for a light mint flavor.
