Ingredients

Units Scale

Chocolate Cake:

  • 1 box Devil's Food Cake Mix
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup mayonnaise (I used Hellmann's)
  • 2 tablespoons espresso powder
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Chocolate Cream Frosting:

  • 1 pint whipping cream
  • 1 (3.9 oz) box Devil's Food Pudding Mix
  • 2 tablespoons confectioner's sugar
  • Sprinkles for topping
  • Additional chocolate chips for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Butter a 3 quart glass baking dish then line with parchment paper. Butter the parchment paper and sift cocoa powder over the bottom of the pan. Set aside.
  3. In the bowl of your mix master with the paddle attachment, beat all the ingredients for the chocolate cake until a smooth batter comes together.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared baking sheet and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the cake tester comes out clean.
  5. Let the cake rest for several minutes before carefully lifting it out of the pan by the parchment paper, onto a cooling rack.
  6. Meanwhile, prepare the frosting by whipping the heavy cream together with the pudding mix and confectioner's sugar.
  7. Once the cake has completely cooled, spread the frosting liberally over the entire cake. Decorate with sprinkles and chocolate chips. Serve and enjoy!
