MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH CHOCOLATE MAYO CAKE

My friend, Sharon Buchanun Fitzwater, submitted this recipe that she says is one of the best chocolate cakes ever. Thank you for sharing Ms. Sharon.

2 c. flour
1 c. sugar
2 t. baking soda
4 T. cocoa
1/4 t. salt
1 c. water
1 c. mayo
1 T. mayo
Milk Chocolate Chips sprinkled on top

(If you use the cake mix version, use yellow cake mix and add the mayo, water, and cocoa.)

Mix and pour into greased and floured 8x13 pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes.
