This cake is simply great with the odd ingredient of beets. It goes in the oven pink and comes out a nice rich beige color. It's a great way to use up those extra beets you have from your garden. I often ice it with a cream cheese icing.

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup vegetable oil
2 cups white sugar
