Instructions
Cake
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease the inside of a 9-inch x 13-inch baking pan and set it aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, stir together the sugar, mayonnaise, and water. (If you use a spoon instead of a mixer, some lumps of mayo will remain, but they will incorporate into the final batter.) Add the flour mixture to the mayo mixture and mix until smooth.
- Pour the cake batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and let the cake to cool to room temperature on a wire rack.
Frosting
- Once the cake has cooled, make the frosting. Beat the butter on high speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.
- Add half the powdered sugar and all the cocoa powder to the butter and beat until smooth. Add remaining sugar and beat until combined. (The frosting will be very thick.)
- Add the heavy cream a little at a time, mixing as you go, until your desired frosting consistency is reached.
- Frost the top of the cooled cake and cut it into 12 slices.
