Seems as if I made a mistake when typing this recipe. The 4 teaspoons of cocoa powder in the cake ingredients list should be 4 tablespoons. Sorry for the mistake. bb

And here I always thought that was my grandmother's mayonnaise cake recipe!! Although her icing was a cooked one that's just like fudge. I haven't made it in awhile, so I think I will right now!
