I didn't read the Epicurious article, but my mom baked a mayonnaise cake at least a few times a year. Her recipe had raisins in it, was baked in a Bundt pan, and was topped with a chocolate glaze. I've made it a few times myself over the years, but in a tube pan. It's very good.

My Gram’s Mayonnaise Cake is, to this day, my favorite cake in the world! It has dates and walnuts, like one that was mentioned in the article. I really don’t like mayonnaise, nor even aioli, and don’t use mayonnaise in or on anything else, but … mayonnaise cake is simply terrific 😋

I've made the mayonnaise cake from Melissa Clark, and it really is moist and chocolatey and easy. You need very good mayonnaise for it. https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1021100-one-bowl-chocolate-mayonnaise-cake
