    Seriously the best white cake recipes!

    white cake recipe step 3 let cakes cool!
    I know what you are thinking- cake from a box? Well I used to agree, and still have many from scratch recipes on my blog (like my ultimate chocolate cake and my orange marmalade cupcakes!), but sometimes I like the time saved using a boxed cake mix can give. So I decided to add more ingredients to the boxed cake mix to make it taste AMAZING!

    How to make this easy white cake recipe:

    • Prep your cake rounds with butter and flour and preheat your oven to 325°F
    • Combine all the wet ingredients and mix thoroughly
    • Add in the cake mix and stir until just combined (over mixing can cause your cake to not bake well)
    • Divide batter between your cake rounds and bake for 25 minutes
    • Let cool completely before frosting!

    I recommend frosting this with my amazing vanilla buttercream, whipped cream frosting, or my super delicious chocolate frosting!

    Total Time 30 mins
    Course Dessert
    Cuisine American
    Servings 3 6in cakes

    Ingredients
      

    • 1 box white cake mix I used Pillsbury brand
    • ½ cup vegetable oil
    • 2 tbs vanilla
    • ¾ cup sour cream
    • ¾ cup heavy cream
    • 4 egg whites

    Instructions
     

    • Preheat oven to 325°F. Prep your cake rounds by covering the inside of the pans with a light layer of butter and then dusting with flour. I like to use my fingers to make sure the butter gets in all seams.
    • Mix together, either by hand or in a stand mixer, the oil, vanilla, sour cream, heavy cream and egg whites. Then mix in the boxed cake mix. Divide the batter between the 3 cake rounds.
    • Bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Make sure to bake all the cakes on the same oven rack so they bake evenly.
    • Let the cakes cool for 5 minutes then flip upside down onto a wire cooling rack and remove the pans. They should come out easily.
    • Let the cakes cool completely before frosting.

    Notes
