Chocolate Mayonaise Cake
- 1 Tbsp. butter (for the pans)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (I prefer Ghirardelli, or Scharffen Berger, but you can use good old Hershey's), (plus more for the pans)
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 cup Hellmann's(R) or Best Foods(R) Real Mayonnaise
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup hot water
- 1 Tbsp. vanilla extract
- Preheat oven to 350u0b0. Butter and cocoa powder 2 ( 8-inch) cake pans. I have also made this in a 9 by 13 baking pan. Mix all dry ingredients in a large bowl; flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Then add Hellmann's(R) or Best Foods(R) Real Mayonnaise, eggs, water and vanilla and stir until just mixed through. Divide batter into the 2 prepared pans.
- Bake 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean. Unmold the cakes and allow to cool 30 minutes. Frost with a cream cheese chocolate frosting and prepare for chocolate heaven.
