Place all dry ingredients in an 8 x
8-inch glass baking dish and combine them with a fork.
Using the fork, make a well in the
center of the dry ingredients.
Pour in all the wet ingredients and
stir well with the fork, making sure to scrape the dry ingredients
up from the corners.
Put the cake in the oven and bake for
25-30 minutes, until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean
(or you can poke it with that fork).
Remove it and let it cool for at least
half an hour.

Mix it and bake it, even eat it if you
like, all in one 8 x 8-inch glass pan. It's so fast you don't even have
to slow down to crack an egg; and the only pieces of equipment you need
are the pan, an oven, and a fork.
There are several varieties of this type
of one-pan cake, but our Mexican version has a zesty addition of
cinnamon to give it extra interest. You can add other ingredients that
you may have in your pantry, such as 1/2 cup of chocolate chips or some
chopped nuts.
