Mayonnaise cake
Description
I want to say right away that your family and guests will never guess which exact ingredient is the base of this dessert. Mayonnaise gives the dough an amazing texture, yet it's completely undetectable in the finished cake. As for the frosting, there are several options—condensed milk, sour cream, whipped cream, etc. This recipe will definitely become one of your favorites.
