At first I thought it was going to be a dud cake, as the batter tasted really weird. But I baked it anyway, and it was 5 stars! It was tested by 3 adults and 7 kids, all of them said "2 thumbs up!" and the 10 year old said "you should go make this cake at a cake making place and be the manager cause this cake is sooo good!". This is a great, chocolatly, thick and creamy cake! YUM

Don't let the mayonaise deter you.... this is the most delicious cake I have ever tasted. I use sweetened chocolate instead of unsweetened but other than that, I change nothing. The last time I made it, I topped it with "whipped cream cheese frosting" and it was talked about for days. Thanks.

was looking forward to having a great chocolate cake. Was easy to make..... looked good when it came out of the oven (although I had to keep it in for an extra 10 minutes) but ended up tasting gummy! Not sure what I did wrong

Definitely a keeper!!! I just made this recipe and I fear I may have 1/2 the cake eaten by days end. :) I never have bakers chocolate on hand, so I used 9 tablespoons of cocoa powder and 3 tablespoons (grape seed but any oil will work) oil instead (the recipe on the back of hershey's cocoa) This is the perfect recipe, especially when you don't have any eggs in the fridge!!!
