Step 2
Sift together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and baking soda in a large bowl. Add mayonnaise, water, and vanilla; beat until smooth, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool completely before frosting, if desired.
