Who would win in a fight: Me or Betty Crocker?

All the hacks summed in this video
1. Add an extra egg than the box recipe
2. Swap the water with milk, one to one ratio
3. Half the oil, and the other half use butter
4. Use sour cream for tangyness

Note: I did 1-3, but i left the 1/4 cup oil and also added 1/4 cup butter, with no sour cream/pudding, and it tasted pretty good! No one realized it was box mix :)
Good Luck Baking!

"For legal purposes..." 😂 I'm an attorney and this tickled me.

I love the concept of this video so much; it reminds me of when I was in college. I was the go-to birthday cake maker and would make box chocolate cake. I added heavy cream in the batter, would make a ganache with some half-price holiday candy (the sales!!!) and add that to the mix to make it a bit fudgey, and a few other tweaks. *Not* a structurally sound cake, but it was so good for pretty cheap. I'm going to have to try your recipe! 😊

I already do milk and butter swap with the extra egg but if Im using yellow, white or butter cake mix I also add a bit of vanilla extract to make the flavor little more smooth

I made this for my sons birthday. Omg it was a delicious cake. It was three layers topped with chocolate covered strawberries, and it was sooo much better than a box cake. DEFINITELY try this, you'll be glad you did.

3:20 when I notice lumps or clumps in my cake I always mix it with a stick mixer. This also helps if I used too cold butter and I have butter flakes in the liquid. Just blend it thoroughly with the stick mixer for a few minutes and it will come together perfectly

Another solid hack for chocolate cake is to use a chocolate pudding packet!

This was so delightful and informative! I'm definitely making all my boxed cakes like this now!

I do the extra egg and milk instead of water, and i add yoghurt. Never used sour cream because i don't have it in my fridge usually.

This was so enjoyable! I'm so glad I came across this video today! I've already been playing around with swapping oil for butter, and adding an extra egg, and I can definitely tell the difference. But I didn't know about the sour cream, so I can't wait to try it 😊
