Combine dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl, tossing lightly with a
spoon to mix. Combine the mayonnaise, coffee, and vanilla in a
smaller bowl; add to the dry ingredients, beating with the mixer on
medium for three minutes.
Generously grease a baking pan, then dust with cocoa. Bake at 350 F.
For a layer cake, bake 20 minutes; for a sheet cake, bake 25 minutes;
for a bundt cake, bake 45 minutes. If it falls, don't throw it

The History of Recipes
We can follow the history of meal recipes back into distant history, in fact as far into history as the early Egyptians, and quite possibly further than that. In practice though, generally, these ancient cookbooks were just very basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for meal preparation.
Moving on, there were some recipe books which date from the 14th Century - a cookery book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary called `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are a little misleading though, these two books are nothing to do with the curry that we all know today, but instead accounts of the types of food prepared by the cooks of the nobility of that period. Later, in the 15th century, people returning from the crusades brought us many spices and herbs from Arab cooking, including coriander, parsley, and rosemary. The introduction of these new tastes led to a surge in manuscripts on food, the majority of which are kept safe in private cookery archives. Like it or not, the introduction of TV gave us TV cookery programs and the accompanying recipe books. And that neatly brings us to the present day and the invention of the internet, permitting everyone to search through thousands of recipes just like those on the site you are now reading. |
We hope you enjoy this Chocolate Mayonnaise Cake recipe.
