This was Jason’s favorite cake recipe of his mom’s growing up and he still requests it for each birthday. Pair it with vanilla ice cream and you have the perfect way to celebrate your special day. And for Jason’s favorite way to eat his chocolate mayonnaise cake…he likes to put a piece in a bowl and pour milk over it! This is also the way our dad used to eat some of his favorite desserts, not for everyone but definitely worth the try!
Cake:
1 1/4 c. sugar
2 tsp. baking soda
2 c. flour

1 c. warm water
1 c. Miracle Whip
pinch of salt
