AMIENA’S MAYONNAISE CHOCOLATE CAKE
2 cups flour
3 eggs
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 cup cocoa
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup B-well Creamy Gourmet Mayonnaise
1 cup water
2 teaspoons vanilla
B-well baking spray (cook & spray)
Method:
1. Sift the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt together.
2. In a separate bowl whisk together the eggs, sugar, mayonnaise, water and vanilla until it is creamy and fluffy.
3. Add the bowl of dry ingredients to the bowl with the ingredients you just whisked and stir everything together..
4. Spray some B-well baking spray in the your cake pan, we used a 9 x 13 inch pan. Pour ingredients over into your cake pan.
5. Bake at 180 C. for about 25 minutes, after 25 minuets test with a knife to insure the cake is not raw and remove from oven.
6. Once the cake has cooled down, you may start putting your chocolate icing on.
The icing we used for this cake was a dark chocolate ganache icing. We simply chopped up 250 grams of dark chocolate (70% cocoa) and added the chocolate to 1 cup of heavy whipping cream. You simply heat up the cream in a sauce pan, once it starts boiling remove from heat immediately and add the dark chocolate, whisk together until the chocolate has melted completely.
