Portillos cake is one my FAVORITE things. My husband and I actually considered having it at our wedding... (which, looking back, I wish we had). If you've never had it, it's the most delectable chocolaty cake I've ever had (the mayo is the secret). For our wedding anniversary this year, I wanted to try to make a homemade version. This was totally the same! I am not exaggerating when I say it was gone in two days... mostly my fault. It's addicting. And the best part is how easy it is!
Ingredients:
- 1 box Betty Crocker Devil's Food Cake (get the one that says "super moist" on it)
- 3 eggs
- 1 c. cold water
- 1 c. mayo
- 2 cans Betty Crocker chocolate frosting
- Heat oven to 350 degrees
- Grease 2 cake pans
- In a bowl, mix all ingredients except for frosting. Low for 30 seconds, and high for 3 minutes
- Split the batter between the 2 pans
- Cook for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean
- Let cakes cool completely on a wire rack
- Place one cake on a cake platter, and frost with about 3/4 of one can of frosting
- Place the second cake on top, and use the remaining frosting to cover everything (the frosting in the middle of the two cakes is my favorite part so I put a lot of frosting there!)
