Oh my goodness-looks delicious!

I’m so glad I found you! You’re the realest lady I’ve seen yet during the kind of cooking I was raised up on and I love your kitchen. It’s just look like my Mama’s kitchen with pots and pans hanging and shelves to hold things, because there’s not enough storage in the kitchen and you’re just a sweet lady. I’m not the “star struck” kind of person, but you’re someone that I feel like I could hang out with, eat and gain a lot of weight! 😅Continue to be a blessing! ❤❤❤

[@inthekitchenwithtallifaye4724]

I love this recipe , I will make this for church , I tell my husband I’m watching Talli Faye ,or Talli Fayes making this or that , I make a bread pudding that nobody makes but me and it’s in the Cotten Country cookbook the name of it is Simple Bread Pudding , it’s so easy and if you like Egg custard you’ll love it , and no young people makes egg custard and never have tasted it but it’s comfort food

There is an adjustment screw on your mixer so you can move the whisk up or down .. no more unmixed bits in the bottom 😊

Yup, made this for more than 50 years. It's a little heavier than some chocolate cakes but actually not as chocolatey. I freeze pieces to have later. I love vanilla icing on it.

Talli Faye, I made this cake yesturday and it is a wonderful recipe. My oven runs hot so it only took 30 minutes to bake. The cake turned out moist and delicious. It reminded me so much of my mother's chocolate mayonnaise cake. I love this recipe! Thank you!

This cake looks so delicious Talli Faye , I’ll be making it for sure !! Thanks for reading off the ingredients and the instructions at the end , it helped a lot watching the video and then getting the list and instructions it sorta helped make sense!! Thank you and I’m sure glad to see I’m not the only one who uses clothes pins to close bags 👏👏🤣🤣!! Talli Faye I don’t know if you know but you can make powdered sugar out of regular granulated sugar , just put your sugar in a high speed blender or food processor and let it run on high until it turns into powdered sugar ! A bullet blender works great and does it in a couple of minutes but lesser powerful blenders can take 4-5 minutes just keep a check on it !! Caution -be careful opening the lid after blending it up a cloud of powder can come up and make you choke a little on the sugar dust , also make more than you need because powdered and granulated measure up slightly different amounts when measured , I don’t know why but there is a little different measurement !! ❤️🙏🙋🏻🌈🌈

[@inthekitchenwithtallifaye4724]

I need to get me one of those bullet blenders!

My daddy made us chocolate mayonnaise cake with crisco icing once in a while, it was delicious, his dad made it because they lived in the wilderness and didn't want to waste eggs in cake.

[@jennifermitchell7562]

thank you so much for sharing this recipe! It looks delicious. There are so many possibilities with this cake and frosting. All I could think of was how I could crumble up Oreo cookies all on the top. Yum!

[@maryf409]

I make this a lot. Especially with the price of eggs!! My mother used to always make this growing up for our lunches with just powdered sugar on top. I usually just cheat and buy a cream cheese icing for it. I never grease the pan. The recipe of my Mother’s didn’t call for it. It doesn’t stick. I just use a metal spatula and comes out just fine. And her recipe calls for just plain old vegetable oil. I’ll be trying your chocolate icing next time I make it though! It looks delicious!! You can make a vanilla cake but just omitting the cocoa and adding an extra teaspoon of vanilla. My mother used to make it that way for strawberry shortcake. Have a blessed day!

[@inthekitchenwithtallifaye4724]

Love the look of depression choc cake, it looks like the old days. Plus I like NOT crazy sweet. Ty Talli. One thing I need to ask, your butter sticks look so much shorter than mine from Kroger, if you'd mention the ounces it would be helpful.

What size sticks are your butter for the frosting?

I was wondering if that cake was going to be gummy because there’s no eggs in it. I made my son a vegan cake with applesauce and no eggs and oil. It turned out a little gummy, it was a box white cake. He loved it. He hadn’t had cake in a year.

[@lhiggo9105]

I'm guessing that maybe the name comes from the 3 "depressions" you make in the dry ingredients????

So here I am at 1:30am watching this video. You just got finished stirring all the ingredients together. I’m so confused as to why you had to do 3 holes for the liquids then stir it all together. My years of cooking screams don’t trust this recipe but then I remember I’m trusting you Ms Talli Faye not the recipe. Waiting patiently here for the verdict on the almost forgotten baking powder. I’d probably just not bothers and hope it was a new strand of brownies. Lol Also I’m thinking that was almost a plain/vanilla cake since chocolate chips came to the market the same year the Great Depression ended. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

[@monnanugent8168]

My brain is turning wondering why make the 3 holes in it and then mix it up. Why not just mix it up the regular way. You know, add the dry to the wet and mix away. Unless... Mixing it in the pan keeps folks from over mixing. Or maybe they did it that way to make the name "Crazy Cake" make sense. I don't know but I"m going to find out. I'm gonna make 2 of them (thank goodness my grandbabies love cake cause I can't eat all that cake. Well I could eat all that cake but I probably shouldn't) and see if they taste any different. If they taste the same, I'll know how the name "Crazy Cake" came about. You go crazy wondering why in the sam hill you're doing it that way.
