Seriously the best white cake recipes!

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!

Prep Time 5 mins
Cook Time 25 mins
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.
