For the moistest and most delicious cake you've ever made from a box follow this basic formular in place of the box instructions...I swear to you that no one but you will know it is a boxed cake...unless of course you can't keep a secret.
- using Duncan Hines All Butter Recipe (Yellow or Fudge) your choice.
- 1 stick of softened "unsalted" butter (the real stuff no margarine)
- 4 large eggs (INSTEAD OF 3 EGGS)
- 1 cup whole milk (INSTEAD OF WATER)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- optional: if using yellow cake add 2 teaspoon grand marnier or 2 teaspoons orange juice with grated zest of orange.
- if using fudge cake mix you can add 2 teaspoons of coffee liquer like tia maria OR rasperry liquer.
- PREHEAT OVEN TO 350 OR 375 AS DESCRIBED ON BOX,
- SPRAY CAKE PAN OR PANS WITH PAM BAKING SPRAY.
- cream butter in mixer using whisk
- add eggs one at a time beating to incorporate with butter
- add milk
- add cake mix
- remember to scrape down the sides and bottom of bowl to ensure all ingredients are full blended.
- TURN MIXER TO HIGH now add vanilla extract and any optional additional flavorings you want. MIXER SHOULD REMAIN AT HIGH FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES
- POUR IMMEDIATELY INTO PANS. BANG PANS ON COUNTER TO RELEASE AIR BUBBLES AND BAKR USING BOX TIMR CHART.
- ALLOW CAKE TO COOL FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES THEN REMOVE FROM PAN. COOL COMPLETELY WITH FAVORITE DUNCAN HINES FROSTING.
- YOU CAN SEE THE DIFFERENCE THE EXTRA EGG MAKES... CAKE IS HIGHER AND FLUFFIER (LIKE A SCRATCH CAKE)
- THE MILK MAKES IT MOISTER AND RICHER. THE VANILLA MAKES IT TASTE FRESH NOT BOXED.
- DON'T FORGET TO LET ME KNOW HOW YOU AND YOUR GUESTS ENJOYED IT. REMEMBER ITS A SECRET.
