This recipe takes the simplicity of a 3-ingredient cake and adds a touch of charm to your baking experience. Using a cake mix keeps it quick and foolproof, while the easy steps make it feel like pure kitchen magic.
Ingredients:
- 1 box cake mix (any flavor you love)
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup (240 ml) whole milk
Instructions:
- Preheat and Prepare (10 minutes):
- Preheat your oven to the temperature listed on your cake mix box.
- Grease and flour your preferred cake pan — round, square, or even a bundt pan if you’re feeling fancy.
- Batter Up! (5 minutes):
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cake mix, eggs, and milk until the batter becomes silky smooth.
- You can use a hand mixer for ease, but a whisk and a little enthusiasm work just as well.
- Bake and Enjoy:
- Pour the luscious batter into your prepared pan, smoothing out the top.
- Place it in the oven and bake according to the time listed on your cake mix box.
- When done, check with a toothpick — if it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, your cake is ready to shine.
Tips:
- Add a teaspoon of vanilla or almond extract for a subtle flavor boost.
- Once cooled, decorate your cake with frosting, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar for an elegant finish.
Pro Tip: This recipe is the perfect base for creativity — fold in chocolate chips, fruit, or shredded coconut to make it uniquely yours!
