I was going to suggest the durable cake mix recipe here also. However, when I made it, the cake wasn't completely done even with using flower nails in the center. I use 3" deep pans though. I experimented with the recipe at least 4 times and just couldn't master it.
I use this recipe for all my cakes and so far have had real good luck with it:
1 box Duncan Hines cake mix (any flavor) - for the chocolate mixes I decrease the water to 3/4 cup, especially the Devils Food cake one
1 packet of Dream Whip
4 eggs
1 cup of water
Bake at 350; time depends on size of pan.
You can also use the liquid coffee creamers, Amaretto for example, and adjust the liquid: 1/2 cup water; 1/2 cup of creamer. I've also recently started adding about a Tbsp of the Wedding Bouquet or Creme Bouquet flavorings to the mixture.
Good luck on your ventures with recipes!!  |

Here's a recipe I found on CC ( sorry didn't copy the posters name!)
I love it but it tends to stick to the pan- I bake @ 325 until sides pull away and top bounces back
Has anyone else had this problem- Should I cut down on the sour cream?
Thanks- Really love the taste so want to solve this!
I use DH cake mix according to box directions then add:
1/2 box (4 serving size) instant pudding
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup heavy cream
mix on medium for 4 min.
you will have to spread the batter evenly into your pan(s)
because it won't spread by itself.
Makes a very rich moist cake. |

This is what I use and always get raves about-
1 bx duncan hines
1 bx instant pudding that goes with cake flavor-I use cheesecake, vanilla or white choc with a white mix.
Add the pudding mix-dry-when you add the cake mix. I add all the other ingred. listed on the mix. So that the batter isn't too thick I add extra water. If the mix calls for 1 1/4C water I add an extra 1/4C water, if it calls for 1 1/3 C water, I add an extra 1/3C water-add these amounts PER BOX of cake mix. Works great, easy & cheap |

Okay, I haven't tried the doctored mixes yet but was wondering, how much more mix do you get out of this compared to a regular box of mix? |

I usually use the cake mix extender recipe (http://www.cakecentral.com/cake_recipe-1977-1-Cake-Mix-extender.html) and substitute half of the sugar for a small packet of pudding. |

Just add a small packet of instant pudding and an extra egg to each mix. Yes the batter is super thick (especially when making the chocolate cake), but that makes it super yummy! Takes a little longer to bake as well. Bake at 325! |

I do what sugarspice does with the water measurement...if it calls for 1 1/4 I add 1/4 more water or if it calls for 1 1/3, I add 1/3 c more water with 1 egg per box of pudding. I use 1 small box of pudding per 1 box of Betty Crocker....everyone always raves how moist my cakes are |
