Sometimes cake mixes are just easier. With the right directions and tips, you can make any cake mix into a delicious and moist cake. You can even use those cheap generic cake mixes for this and it will be dense, moist and delicious! Ignore directions on the box.
1 cake mix full size, any standard flavor
1 standard package of instant pudding mix, flavor to complement the cake mix
1 cup water or juice to flavor cake
4 eggs
1/2 cup vegetable oil
Mix all ingredients except the eggs together very well with a mixer. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Pour into greased cake pans.
Bake at 350F following baking times on cake mix box for pan size.
Basic ingredients for plain vanilla frosting for a standard large two layer cake:
4 cups powdered icing sugar
1/2 softened fat (butter, shortening, cream cheese)
1 teaspoon vanilla
water or juice in tiny amounts
Directions: ALL LIQUID IS TO BE ADDED LAST! Combine powdered icing sugar, vanilla and fat in mixer and process until fairly well mixed. Mixture will be dry and crumbly. Put in any desired additions here (see list below). Add water or juice, a tiny amount (1 teaspoon) at a time, mixing well after each addition until frosting has reached the desired consistency. Beat very well on high after all additions are made. If it is too wet and thin, add more sugar slowly.
All additions are to be added and mixed in well before adding liquid (water or juice) to frosting. Be careful adding fresh fruit to frosting. Some fruits will turn it brown and need to be refrigerated. Most berries are OK in frosting.
Have fun with the almost endless combination possibilities!
