Box Cake Dressed Up Tips

 Box cake taste homemade


*Start with a good box mix (Duncan Hines works well - white, chocolate, red velvet, strawberry)


*Replace water listed on box with milk (or use buttermilk for red velvet)


*Replace oil listed on box with melted butter


*Add an extra egg


*Add a tiny bit of almond or vanilla extract (for white cake)


*For chocolate cake mixes, add 1/4 cup cocoa powder if you like (or hot chocolate powder??)
