CHOCOLATE FUDGE CAKE 
1/3 c. salad oil
2 oz. premelted chocolate
1 egg
1 c. sugar
1 1/4 c. Wondra flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. vanilla
3/4 c. water
1/2 c. semi-sweet chocolate bits
Walnuts (optional)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a 9 inch square cake pan, combine 1/3 cup salad oil, 2 envelopes (2 ounce) premelted chocolate flavored product, 1 egg, 1 cup sugar, 1 1/4 cups Wondra flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and 3/4 cup water. Beat with a fork until smooth and creamy, approximately 2 minutes. Scrape bottom and sides of pan with a rubber spatula after 1 minute of beating.

Spread batter evenly in the pan, sprinkle with 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate bits. Sprinkle with chopped walnuts or arrange 9-12 walnut halves over top. Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until cake springs back when touched in center. Cool in pan and serve.
