Title: One-Bowl Chocolate-Mayonnaise Cake
Categories: Cakes, Desserts, Chocolate
Yield: 8 servings

1/4 c (25 g) unsweetened cocoa
- powder
2 oz Chopped bittersweet
- chocolate
3/4 c (180 mL) boiling water or
- hot coffee
2/3 c (160 mL) mayonnaise
1/4 ts Kosher salt
1 1/2 ts Baking soda
3/4 c (150 g) granulated sugar
1 ts Vanilla extract
1 1/2 c (190 g) A-P or cake flour
Flavorless oil for the pan
Confectioners' sugar; for
- finishing

To a large mixing bowl, add cocoa powder and chopped
bittersweet chocolate (if using). Pour in boiling
liquid, and let it sit for a few minutes, then whisk
until smooth. The chocolate will have melted, if you
used it, and the cocoa dissolved.

Whisk in mayonnaise, salt, baking soda, 3/4 cup
granulated sugar until smooth. Then whisk in a teaspoon
of vanilla extract, if you have it (or a dash of Bourbon
or brandy or just leave it out entirely). Finally, whisk
in 1 1/2 cups flour (either all-purpose or cake flour),
mixing vigorously to eliminate any lumps.

Grease an 8" or 9" pan (square, round, star-shaped,
anything is good). Pour the batter into the pan, and
bake @ 350ºF/175ºC for 22 to 40 minutes, until the top
springs back when the center is lightly pressed. The
deeper the pan, the longer it will take to bake through.

Let cool, and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar to
finish.
