Sometimes there just isn’t enough hours in the day, especially during the holidays. When your short on time, but looking for an amazing dessert why don’t you make a chocolate cake 
Sometimes the ingredient that makes the most difference is the one that you least expect. It’s time to reveal what will make your Chocolate Cake more desirable than ever…Hellmann’s Real Mayonnaise. You can pick up Hellmann’s Real Mayonnaise at almost any store so you too will have the secret ingredient for baking the perfect Moist Chocolate Mayo Cake! Get the “Secret” recipe below.
TIP: To make the PERFECT Mayo cake I use these cake pans! They are super cheap and make a great layered cake every time!
Super Moist Chocolate Mayo Cake Recipe
INGREDIENTS •1 box (16.5 oz.) chocolate cake mix •1 cup Hellmann’s® Real Mayonnaise •1 cup water •3 eggs •1 tsp. ground cinnamon (optional)
Make the Chocolate Mayo Cake
1. Preheat oven to 350°. Grease and lightly flour two 9-inch round cake pans; set aside. 2. Beat cake mix, Hellmann’s® Real Mayonnaise, water, eggs and cinnamon for 30 seconds in large bowl with electric mixer on low speed. Beat on medium speed, scraping sides occasionally, 2 minutes. Pour batter into prepared pans. 3. Bake 30 minutes or until toothpick inserted in in the center of the cake comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes. Remove the cakes from the pans and cool completely. Now I am a BIG fan of frosting so I frosted my chocolate mayo cake with chocolate frosting. (Each layer) but if you prefer to not frost your cake you can sprinkle yours with this handy dandy confectioners sugar shaker.
Chocolate Mayo cake is actually one of my favorite cakes to make because it’s so easy and it tastes so good. If you have never tried it, you must! Hellmann’s Mayo makes an your cake so moist and delicious it will literally melt in your mouth. If your worried about tasting the mayo in the cake, don’t worry you don’t. All you taste is pure deliciousness. I will recommend pairing the cake with an tall glass of ice cold milk.
You can make Chocolate Mayo Cake Cupcakes!
Turn this recipe into cupcakes. You just use the same ingredients, but this time put the batter in a cupcake pan like this one below. They will taste FANTASTIC!
I’ll use mayonnaise for our deviled eggs on Thanksgiving!

Oh. MY. GOODNESS! This cake was WAY more delicious than I ever remember. It was moist, dense and full of flavor! My son has already asked me to make it again and he’s not usually a chocolate cake fan. In fact, he will usually pass on any chocolate cakes at birthday parties……..fool. I mean seriously……….who doesn’t like cake?
I use mayo for my husband’s sandwiches.
