Chocolate Icing
1 cup butter. softened
1 cup unsweetened natural cocoa powder
1 tsp. vanilla extract
5-6 cups confectioners' sugar
6 or more tablespoons milk
Preparation
Preheat oven to 350 degrees, grease and flour two 8-inch cake pans.
Sift cocoa, flour, baking soda, salt and sugar into a medium bowl, mix well. Combine mayonnaise, vanilla and water in an electric mixer at low speed. Once smooth, slowly add in dry mixture until just incorporated (do not over beat). Pour batter into cake pans and bake for 30 minutes or until done. Cool on wire racks and frost with your favorite chocolate frosting.

Oh, I agree. You can replace the shortening needs in most recipes with Duke's mayonnaise. It also gives you that little something extra kick that puts it over the top.

It definitely comes out more moist than any other cake recipe I have made.

only 14 days max until i get my Duke's...perfect for trying out the chocolate cake for New Years!

i think i'll skip the frosting on the top layer, and use powdered sugar with a cut-out snowflake for a pretty cake top!

You will love it, Jayne.

Make potato salad and deviled eggs with it. You will see a huge difference in the fresh taste.

oooooooh, yum. Do you mind if I steal your idea? I needed another dessert idea for my dinner party Saturday night!

I think the Dukes is "lemony-er" ...I think that's one thing that gives it the fresh taste.
