Steps:

• Grease a loaf or an Angel food cake pan.
• Mix sugar, mayonnaise and vanilla in large bowl.
• Sift together the flour and salt.

DELICIOUSLY MOIST WHITE CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F (175C).
• Grease, line, grease again and flour 2 9 in by 2 in cake pans.
• In a small bowl combine the milk and vinegar. Allow to sit for a minute, and then add the baking soda.
• In a medium bowl lightly combine the egg whites, a quarter cup milk, and the vanilla (and any other flavorings you are using).
• In a mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients and mix them together on low to blend.
• Add the butter/margarine and remaining 3/4 cup milk. Mix on low speed until dry ingredients are moistened. Increase to medium speed and beat for 2 minutes to aerate.
• Scrape down the sides and add a small amount of the egg mixture, beating for 20 seconds to incorporate. Continue in the same method twice more until all the egg mixture has been incorporated.
• Add the boiling water. Scrape down the sides of the bowl AND scrape the bottom of the bowl to loosen anything stuck to it. Beat on low to incorporate then increase to high for 30 seconds.
• Pour in to the prepared pans. The batter should fill half way in each.
• Bake for 35 minutes in the top half of the oven if possible.
• Enjoy!

ONE-BOWL CHOCOLATE-MAYONNAISE CAKE

Steps:

• To a large mixing bowl, add cocoa powder and chopped bittersweet chocolate (if using). Pour in boiling liquid, and let it sit for a few minutes, then whisk until smooth. The chocolate will have melted, if you used it, and the cocoa dissolved.
• Whisk in mayonnaise, salt, baking soda, 3/4 cup granulated sugar until smooth. Then whisk in a teaspoon of vanilla extract, if you have it (or a dash of Bourbon or brandy or just leave it out entirely). Finally, whisk in 1 1/2 cups flour (either all-purpose or cake flour), mixing vigorously to eliminate any lumps.
• Grease an 8- or 9-inch pan (square, round, star-shaped, anything is good). Pour the batter into the pan, and bake at 350 degrees for 22 to 40 minutes, until the top springs back when the center is lightly pressed. The deeper the pan, the longer it will take to bake through.
• Let cool, and sprinkle with confectioners' sugar to finish.
