How To Make Homemade Yellow Cake

homemade yellow cake

How to make yellow cake with homemade cake mix is what I am going to share today. This moist homemade yellow cake will make your day special as it did mine.

Baking cakes makes me happy, makes me smile, makes me sing!. Nidhi comes home from hostel most weekends and weekends are special times these days. Cakes does make my day more special. So, last weekend I made this moist yellow cake with my homemade cake mix recipe.

 After I brought the cake mix to room temperature everything was a breeze...and this beautiful cake was out of the oven in 30 mins.

The crust is perfect and the cake is moist and yum (check video for that slice of yummines). I did not want my chocolate buttercream frosting (sigh!) to spoil my cake (ha!) and the result was this plain yellow but moist and yum cake.

Now, you must be wondering how did this cake become moist?? Oil is the secret ingredient to make a cake moist and yum, so I added half stick of butter to the cake mix and added oil to the cake batter...and I am happy with the result..Bravo! Its no rocket science, but its this chocolate cake which taught me the goodness of oil in a cake.

  INGREDIENTS


  METHOD:

  1. Preheat oven to 180 degree c.
  2. Into a large bowl, add in the eggs and oil and beat/cream it with a handheld beater until pale. Add in the vanilla and cream again.
  3. Add in the milk and lightly mix again.
  4. Dunk in the homemade yellow cake mix and mix well; scraping the sides in between.
  5. Pour into the greased and floured cake pan; gently give it a tap and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until a tooth pick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Once the cake has slightly cooled, run a knife around the sides and invert to a plate.
  7. Slice and serve warm with a glass of milk.

NOTES

  • The cake mix should be brought to room temp; if you have stored it in the fridge.
  • I baked the yellow cake in 9 inch round pan; you can also bake in two 8 inch pan and use my best buttercream frosting to sandwich the cake and frost.
  • This yellow cake has a moist texture as there is oil; but if you prefer you can use butter instead of oil.
