    Oh gosh I love the videos!!! My aunt always taught me to add a pudding mix, use milk instead of water and add 3 extra eggs so total of 5 to the box mix to make it way more moist and I tell you what that’s my favorite way to make box cake mix!

    • @zahrashakeeb
      @zahrashakeeb 4 года назад

      Hi Megan, please let me know that is it going to be more dense? I'm thinking to skip pudding mix (as I dont want that) only but will add butter n milk. Will that work?

    • @Megan-yw9gc
      @Megan-yw9gc 4 года назад +2

      Mona Shaq it makes the cake more moist and I’d say a richer flavor. I wouldn’t say like dense but does add some more weight to it without making it a brick. I think buttermilk would work ok with it I don’t see why not.

    • @jcole3523

I made this cake today (I have not ever tried anything like this....a first with a pastry tube too, I used an offset desert server and bread knife to smooth the frosting....It is not pretty at all...but you make it seem simple (it was not you really are a master) I will eat it tomorrow for my 60th birthday.....keep baking please....

      When I use box cake mix, I add milk in place of the water, melted butter in place of the oil and an extra egg when doing most box mixes. If using a white cake I do the cream cheese or mascarpone cheese in it. Makes a helluva difference. And I wouldn’t call it “cheating”, I’d call it being economical with time :)

    I paused the video at 7:39 and when I went to play it again I realized that Joshua's tattoo says "Be Happy" in ASL. I though that was really awesome!

    Hey JJR, how much vanilla do you use per can of frosting? I want to try this using only one can.

      i was wondering that too, maybe just a tsp per can? Also was it salted or unsalted butter?
