INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

For the Cake: Place hot water an cocoa powder in the bowl of a mixer
with a paddle. Mix until blended. Add mayonnaise. Blend until creamy.
Add sugar, baking soda, mix well. Add the flour in three batches, mix
only until blended. Pour into a pan that has been sprayed with  cooking
spray, bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 40 minutes.  For the Ganache:
Bring cream to a boil. Remove from the flame. Whisk  in coconut rum,
and chopped chocolate. Stir until all the chocolate  has melted and set
aside to cool.  To Assemble:  Once the cake has cooled, take a slicing
knife and even out the top  of the cake. From this one layer we will
make four. Spread a thin  layer of ganache on the bottom layer, top
with a layer of mandarin  oranges that have been drained from the juice
and patted as dry as  possible, a layer of freshly grated coconut and
then another thin  layer of ganache top. Repeat the process with the
remaining 3 layers.  Coat the top of the cake with a thin layer of
ganache and garnish  with mandarins and shaved chocolate.  S: 1 9-inch
