Re: Cakes
CHOCOLATE MAYONNAISE CAKE WITH COFFEE FROSTING
3 cups All-purpose Flour
1 1/2 cups Granulated Sugar
6 Tbs. Cocoa Powder
1/4 tsp. Salt
3 tsp. Baking Soda
3/4 cup Water
3/4 cup Milk
1 1/2 cups Mayonnaise
1 1/2 tsp. Vanilla Extract
Coffee Frosting Ingredients:
2 Tbs. Instant Coffee dissolved in 2 Tbs. hot Water
8-oz. tub of Whipped Topping
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda. Add water, milk, mayonnaise, and vanilla extract. Mix well until thoroughly blended. Pour batter into a greased and floured 9-inch by 13-inch baking pan.
Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
To prepare the frosting, dissolve the instant coffee in the hot water. Empty tub of whipped topping a bowl; add dissolved coffee. Mix with a spoon until thoroughly blended. Allow cake to cool completely in the pan before frosting. The cake is best if you put at least a quarter-inch of the frosting on it. It is also best to store the frosting in the refrigerator and frost the cake just before serving. Refrigerate any leftover cake.
