Delicious Cake Recipe

Ingredients:

  • Cake mix (any flavor you prefer): 1 box
  • Eggs: 3 large
  • Whole milk: 1 cup (240 ml)

Directions:

Step 1: Prepare the Oven and Pan (10 minutes)

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to the temperature recommended on the cake mix box (usually between 325°F and 350°F). This ensures an even bake and a perfectly fluffy cake.
  2. Prepare the Cake Pan: Choose either a round or square cake pan. Grease the pan generously with butter or nonstick spray and lightly dust it with flour to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Mix the Batter (5 minutes)

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the cake mix, eggs, and milk.
  2. Mix Until Smooth: Using a whisk or an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy. Make sure there are no lumps in the batter. This step is crucial for a velvety texture in the cake.

Step 3: Bake the Cake

  1. Pour the Batter: Gently pour the prepared batter into your greased and floured cake pan. Spread it evenly using a spatula.
  2. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven. Bake for the time specified on the cake mix box (typically 25–35 minutes, depending on the size of your pan).
  3. Check for Doneness: After the recommended baking time, insert a toothpick into the center of the cake. If it comes out clean or with only a few moist crumbs, your cake is perfectly baked.

Step 4: Cool and Serve

  1. Cool the Cake: Remove the pan from the oven and allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then carefully transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  2. Decorate (Optional): Frost with your favorite icing, dust with powdered sugar, or serve it plain for a simpler treat.

Tips for Success:

  • Optional Add-ins: Fold in chocolate chips, nuts, or fruit to customize the flavor.
  • Layering: If you want a layered cake, divide the batter evenly between two pans and bake as directed.
  • Storage: Keep the cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.

Enjoy your moist, flavorful cake with friends and family!
