Mayonnaise Chocolate Cake

Recipe Ingredients

2 cups	125g / 4.4oz	Cake flour
1 cup	198g / 7oz	Sugar
6 tablespoons	90ml	Unsweetened cocoa
1/4 teaspoon	1.3ml	Salt
2 teaspoons	10ml	Baking soda
1 cup	237ml	Mayonnaise
1 cup	237ml	Cold brewed coffee
1 teaspoon	5ml	Vanilla extract
		Powdered sugar - for dusting

Recipe Instructions

Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and lightly flour 2 (8-inch) round cake pans.

Stir together the cake flour, sugar, cocoa, salt and baking soda, and sift the mixture onto a piece of wax paper.

In a bowl beat together the mayonnaise, coffee and vanilla until thoroughly blended. Add the combined dry ingredients and beat until the batter is perfectly smooth. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean, about 30 minutes.

Remove the cakes from the oven and let cool in the pans for 5 minutes before turning them out onto racks to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar. This is also good frosted with chocolate or vanilla frosting.
