Yes, even we didn’t know you can make a delectable chocolate cupcake with mayonnaise. But Nola Mayonnaise and the Lazy Makoti shows you how to make one
According to Mogau Seshoene, founder of The Lazy Makoti, Mayonnaise is simply a mixture of oil and egg, both of which are easy ingredients that go in a cake. Adding a cup of mayonnaise makes all the difference in your dessert if you’re aiming for a rich, silky and moist texture and a generally decadent dessert that melts in your mouth. Here’s how to make a one:
