Measuring Cups & spoons
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ⅔ cups unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 ¼ teaspoons baking soda
- 3 large eggs
- 1⅔ cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 ⅓ cups water room temperature
Mayo Frosting
- 1 ½ cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons cocoa
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons milk
Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a Bundt pan generously with nonstick baking spray.
In a medium bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, and baking soda-set aside.
In a large bowl, beat eggs, sugar and vanilla for 1-2 minutes until light and fluffy.
Add in mayonnaise at lower speed until blended.
Alternate adding in the water and flour mixture starting with the flour mixture, and ending with the flour mixture. Combine until there are no more flour streaks.
Pour batter into the Bundt pan. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once done, allow to cool completely before removing from the cake pan.
