I don’t know about you, but I am chocolate-obsessed!
Today I’m going to share my favorite (and most requested!) chocolate mayonnaise cake recipe.
I’m sure you’re probably thinking…mayonnaise? I once thought this was the craziest ingredient to put in a yummy chocolate cake recipe, too. Trust me, you’ll never taste it! It just makes the cake more moist and delicious.
During this quarantine time, many of us are baking more often. So I wanted to share with you my chocolate mayonnaise cake recipe with you! It’s super easy and delicious – two of my favorite things!
If you’re curious about the icing I used for this yummy cake, you can find my chocolate cool-whip icing recipe right here! It’s so light and fluffy, and super easy to whip up!
The great thing about this recipe is that you don’t need a lot of ingredients!
It’s really quick and easy to whip up,Ā as well. I hope you’ll love this cake as much as I do! š
Preheat oven at 350 degrees.
Mix chocolate cake mix, pudding mix, milk, oil and eggs on medium speed until fully incorporated.
Add mayonnaise and mix thoroughly.
Depending on the type of baking pan you're using, review the suggested baking times on the back of the box and bake your cake.
Let cake cool completely before icing.

Sounds great, Jill! Let me know how you like it!
Mm this sounds so good! The recipe reminds of Portillo’s chocolate cake! Portillo’s is a chicago thing and a must for anyone that visits and their chocolate cake is so good!

I heard about this from my friend, Katherine! I live in Ohio and hadn’t heard of the place before, but that’s so neat! I will definitely check it out if I visit Chicago.
Mmm looks really tasty šš Regards!

I’m also a huge chocolate lover, but I never tried a recipe with mayonnaise! But it looks amazing so I will give it a try on the next birthday cake that I’ll make š
Let me know what you think, Tiziana! I promise, you won’t be able to taste it, but it’ll be super moist! š

It does sound a little crazy, haha, but I promise it’s delicious!! Let me know if you give it a try!
Your picture shows a box of pudding mix but it isn’t on your list of ingredients, do you use it in this cake?
Oh, thank you so much for catching that! Yes, you add in one box of instant chocolate pudding mix. It helps to make the cake moist. š
Will the Chocolate Mayonnaise Cake fit in one 9ā round pan ?
Hi, Judy! I split it into two 9″ round pans and then stack them or I have used a single 9×13 pan if that would be better!
