Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

shortening to grease pans
2 c all-purpose flour
2/3 c dark cocoa, unsweetened
1 1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
3 large eggs
1 2/3 c dark brown sugar
1 c good quality mayonnaise
1 c water
1/3 c cold, strong, brewed coffee
2 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. Pre-heat oven to 350°. Grease three 8-inch cakes pans. Line the bottoms with parchment paper and grease the parchment paper as well. Set aside.
  • 2. In a medium sized bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
  • 3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and brown sugar at high speed for 3-4 minutes. The mixture will become light in color and somewhat fluffy.
  • 4. Add the mayonnaise to the egg mixture and beat until just blended.
  • 5. Add the coffee to the cup of water.
  • 6. Into the egg mixture, alternately mix in the flour mixture with the coffee-water, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Scrape down the sides of the bowl in between each addition and do not over beat.
  • 7. Divide equally between the three prepared pans.
  • 8. Bake for 20-23 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center of cakes comes out clean.
  • 9. On wire racks, cool for 10 minutes, then remove from pans, peel off parchment paper and place on racks to cool completely.
  • 10. Spread frosting on cake only when completely cool.
