Chocolate Mayonnaise Cake

5 steps
Prep:10minCook:30min
When you think about it, mayo is just oil and eggs, things that normally go into a cake anyway. So why not just jump a couple steps and use mayonnaise in your cake. This secret ingredient cake is perfectly moist and airy, with a rich chocolate flavor. Top with whatever frosting you like if desired!
