Ingredients:
- Made From Scratch Chocolate-Mayonnaise Cake
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
- 3 eggs
- 1 2/3 cups sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup Hellmann's mayonnaise
- 1 1/3 cups strong coffee
- Cake Mix Mayonnaise Cake
- 3 eggs
- 1 box devils food cake mix
- 1 cup of water or strong coffee
- 1 cup mayonnaise we use Hellmann's
How to cook:
- Directions for Homemade Scratch Cake:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and lightly flour either a 13 x 9 sheet pan or bundt pan.
- In a medium bowl, combine flour, cocoa, baking soda, and baking powder to use later in the recipe.
- In another larger bowl use an electric mixer at high speed, beating the eggs, sugar, and vanilla for 3 minutes or until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the mayonnaise at low speed until blended.
- Stir in the flour mixture with water, then pour into the pan you're using
- Bake around 30 minutes for the sheet cake or around 55 minutes for the bundt pan, using the toothpick method or a pick of spaghetti to see if it comes out clean in the deepest part of the cake.
- Cool completely and frost with your favorite frosting.
- Directions for Cake Mix Mayonnaise Cake:
- Mix all the above ingredients beating with an electric mixer for 3 to 4 minutes then pour into a bundt pan or 13x9 sheet cake pan that is heavily greased.
- Bake at 350 until a toothpick comes clean in middle around 35 to 45 minutes.
- Note for a convection oven, reduce heat to 325 degrees, and time by 10 minutes for sheet cakes, use the toothpick method.
- Bundt cakes take longer to bake in convection ovens around 1 hour.
- Cool 10 minutes and flip on to the platform you will serve it from.
- Cool completely.
- Frost with milk chocolate buttercream frosting or canned frosting of choice.
- Milk Chocolate Frosting Recipe:
- 1 cup softened butter,
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 3/4 cup Dutch cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1-2 tablespoons of milk or strong coffee
- Beat the sugar with butter till fluffy, add in the cocoa, vanilla, and milk.
