Ingredients
Betty Crocker Devil’s Food Cake. Yup, the best cake in town is made with a cake mix! But don’t worry, I won’t tell if you won’t.
Eggs. They make the cake so rich and fudgy! Always use room temperature eggs when baking.
Mayonnaise. Don’t worry, I haven’t gone mad. Mayonnaise makes the chocolate cake even better. The oil makes the cake super tender, while the vinegar balances out the sweetness of the cake.
Betty Crocker chocolate frosting. Why make it from scratch when you can just buy a perfectly good pre-made frosting? I’m telling you, this frosting is so good, people will think it’s homemade.
Ingredients
1 box of Betty Crocker Devil’s Food Cake
3 eggs
1 cup ice-cold water
1 cup mayonnaise
2 cans of Betty Crocker chocolate frosting
Directions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease (2) 9-inch round cake pans.
In a large bowl, add cake mix, eggs, water, and mayonnaise. Mix on low speed for 30 seconds. Increase speed to high and mix for 5 minutes.
Pour the batter evenly over the two cake pans.
Bake for 30 to 32 minutes. Check for doneness using a toothpick. Insert a toothpick in the middle of the cake – if it comes out clean, it’s time to get it out of the oven.
Let the cakes rest for 5 minutes, then remove them from the pans. Let them cool on a wiring rack for an hour.
Place one cake on a plate and spread frosting on top. Top it with the other cake and coat the top and sides with the rest of the frosting. Decorate the cake as desired. Enjoy!
