ONE-BOWL CHOCOLATE-MAYONNAISE CAKE



One-Bowl Chocolate-Mayonnaise Cake image

Born out of a scarcity of fresh eggs, chocolate-mayonnaise cake is one of those Depression-era recipes that sounds a lot stranger than it tastes. After all, cakes rely on eggs and fat for tenderness and richness, and mayo is made of exactly those things, plus some salt and vinegar to give it tang. But you don't taste the tanginess of the mayo, and if you didn't tell anyone it was there, they would never know. Which is to say, don't let a lack of eggs or butter stop you from making cake. This cake is ridiculously good for the small amount of effort you put into it.

Time 50m

Yield 1 (8- or 9-inch) cake

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup/25 grams unsweetened cocoa powder (Dutch-processed or natural)
1 to 2 ounces chopped bittersweet chocolate (optional)
3/4 cup/180 milliliters boiling water, or use hot coffee, Earl Grey tea or mint tea
2/3 cup/160 milliliters mayonnaise
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 cup/150 grams granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract, or a dash of bourbon or whiskey (optional)
1 1/2 cups/190 grams all-purpose or cake flour
Flavorless oil or another grease, for the pan
Confectioners' sugar, for finishing

Steps:

  • 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-inch pan (square, round, star-shaped, anything is good). Pour the batter into the pan, and bake at 350 degrees 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.

ONE-BOWL CHOCOLATE CAKE



One-Bowl Chocolate Cake image

Birthday? Anniversary? Going-away party? This super-easy, one-bowl layer cake is the perfect dessert for any gathering of chocolate buffs.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Time 1h25m

Yield Serves 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

Softened unsalted butter, for pans
1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for pans
1 1/2 cups sugar
3/4 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt (we use Diamond Crystal)
2 large eggs, room temperature
3/4 cup low-fat buttermilk, room temperature
3/4 cup hot tap water
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
6 tablespoons vegetable oil
Chocolate Frosting for One-Bowl Chocolate Cake

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter two 8-by-2-inch round cake pans; dust with flour, tapping out excess. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk in eggs, buttermilk, water, vanilla, and oil.
  • Divide batter evenly between prepared pans. Bake until tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 30 minutes. Transfer pans to a wire rack; let cool 15 minutes. Invert cakes onto rack, remove parchment, then turn top-side up (to prevent sticky tops from sticking to rack); let cool completely.
  • Spread 1 1/2 cups frosting over top of one cooled cake layer. Top with remaining layer. Spread a thin coat (about 1 cup) of frosting over top and sides of cake to create a "crumb coat." Refrigerate about 20 minutes, then frost top and sides of cake with remaining frosting. (For a more refined look, trim domed top of cake flat before layering and frosting.)

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use high-quality cocoa powder.
  • If you don't have a microwave, you can melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • If you want a taller cake, use two 8-inch round pans instead of one 9x13 inch pan.
  • For a fudgy cake, bake it for 30-35 minutes. For a more cakey texture, bake it for 35-40 minutes.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it.
  • If you don't have chocolate frosting, you can use vanilla frosting or any other type of frosting you like.
  • For a special occasion, you can decorate the cake with chocolate chips, sprinkles, or chopped nuts.

Conclusion:

One bowl chocolate mayonnaise cake is a delicious and easy-to-make cake that is perfect for any occasion. It is moist, chocolatey, and has a fluffy texture. The mayonnaise in the cake makes it extra moist and tender. This cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
