Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour 34g
- 1 box White Cake Mix Duncan Hines Classic White, 15.25 oz recommended
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons full-fat mayonnaise such as Hellman's
- ⅛ teaspoon almond extract or imitation almond extract optional
- Additional ingredients as specified on the cake mix box water, eggs, oil
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- In a large mixing bowl, sift the cake mix to enhance the cake’s texture. Follow the package instructions to add water, eggs, and oil.
- Incorporate the vanilla, almond extract, flour, and mayonnaise into the mixture. Using a mixer on medium speed, blend all ingredients together for approximately 2 minutes, ensuring a smooth, well-combined batter.
- If you have extra batter, cover and store it in the refrigerator for up to one day.
- Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans. Pour the prepared batter evenly into the pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of each cake layer comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached.
- For cupcakes, fill the liners and bake at 350°F for 18-20 minutes, using the same toothpick test to check for doneness.
