Dutch Oven Chocolate Depression Cake
Dutch Oven Chocolate Depression Cake is a simple recipe that requires no eggs, butter or milk to bake. This makes it a fantastic recipe for camping. It also bakes wonderfully in a Dutch oven. It is called a depression cake because it was popular during the Great Depression when certain ingredients were hard to come by or expensive. Or it could be called a depression cake because of the depressions put into the cake before mixing. Either way it’s a moist chocolatey cake that everyone will love.

Table Rock State Park, South Carolina
Table Rock State Park located in Pickens, South Carolina was one of the most beautiful parks we have ever camped in. The views throughout the park were breathtaking. This was such a great escape from the madness of the world. I thought long and hard about going on this trip with my family. I did not want to contribute to the spread of COVID-19 or expose my family. We planned our trip carefully to limit contact with others. So with trepidation last week we loaded up the camper and brought our Lysol as ventured to the mountains of South Carolina. Camping is the ultimate social distancing activity. We kept to…
