I am a bit confused. Not sure if I want to be fully honest here (as you may think I am crazy). Ok I will tell you anyway. The mayonnaise is one of those things I take with me when returning from Lithuania to Milan 😀 I knowwwwwww! Although it may sound crazy, but there is one Lithuanian mayonnaise that I grew up with. It is bitter and soft at the same time, I love its color and texture. It is the best mayonnaise to make the chocolate mayonnaise cake. Bear with me.
Since I was a kid, I always knew mayonnaise can be used for more than salty dishes only. You could actually use it when making desserts such as cakes! Why? Because mayonnaise is made out of eggs and oil that are the base ingredients of any cake. The chocolate mayonnaise cake is one of many options where mayo plays a very important role.
Chocolate mayonnaise cake. Yes, you read it right. Mayonnaise may be an important ingredient when it comes to making soft and moist cakes. My Grandma has an amazing mayonnaise cookie recipe (she is keeping the recipe secret, by the way) but she has never tried this mayo cake. If you, just like my Grandma, think this does not make a lot of sense, give it a try, and let’s talk about it again once you finish your cake.
I love quick-to-make dishes, whether sweet or savory, especially when Step 1 to Step N is simply mixing all the ingredients together. This chocolate mayonnaise cake is sooooo easy to make and is a great option for those who have few time or who have guests suddenly passing over for a visit. Be ensured you will make it in a blink of an eye, and your guests will do a bis!
I love having the chocolate mayonnaise cake for breakfast. I would lie if I said that I don’t have it with my afternoon coffee, too. It has quite strong flavor because of the cocoa powder, and it makes my afternoon breaks sooo tasty. The recipe is here below, shall we make it and see that the mayo can be used for cakes as well?
