1. Mix flour, sugar, baking powder & mayonaise. This is best done by an electric food mixer to ensure the mixture is throughly mixed.
2. Dissolve the cocoa in the boiling water & stir into the mixture along with the essence until throughly blended.
3. Place the mixture into a 7 inch greased & lined cake tin.
4. Bake at gas mark 4/ 180C/ 350F for 30 - 40 minutes. Test with a skewer.
5. cool in the tin before removing.
6. For the icing - If you are using Betty Crocker ready mix chocolate frosting go straight to step 9.
7. Dissolve the coffee & cocoa in the hot water.
8. Cream together the margarine/butter & icing sugar. Beat in the cocoa liquid.
9. Spread over the top & sides.
