Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 box Boxed cake mix (any flavor)
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 cup Vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Optional mix-ins (chocolate chips, nuts, etc.)
- 1 tablespoon Butter (for greasing the pan)
- 1 tablespoon Flour (for dusting the greased pan)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with butter and dust it lightly with flour to prevent sticking. Tap out any excess flour.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the boxed cake mix, eggs, milk, vegetable oil, sour cream, and vanilla extract. Mix on low speed with an electric mixer for 30 seconds to combine.
Increase the mixer to medium speed and beat the batter for 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed until smooth and thick.
If using optional mix-ins like chocolate chips, fold them into the batter gently with a spatula.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan and smooth out the top with the spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before serving or frosting.
