Ingredients
1 box Duncan Hines Golden Butter Cake Mix
1 package 8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup of water
4 large eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
To make a basic powdered sugar icing (recipe optional), you will need:
2 cups powdered sugar
2 cups margarine or butter
1 cup vanilla
3-4 tablespoons of milk or half and half
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the skillet and preheat the oven
Spray 10-inch loaf pan with cooking spray and dust with flour. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Step 2: Mix all the ingredients
In a large bowl, combine canned cake mix, water, eggs, cream cheese, sugar, vanilla extract and vegetable oil. Using an electric mixer, beat the ingredients at low speed for 1 min. After one minute of mixing, scrape down the sides of the bowl and beat for two minutes on medium speed.
Step 3: Bake the cake
Once the mixture is well blended and smooth, pour it into your prepared cake pan. Cooking 35 to 40 minutes. On a wire rack, let the cake cool completely.
Step 4: Prepare the frosting (optional)
In a bowl, mix powdered sugar, butter or margarine, vanilla and milk or half and half. Mix all the ingredients with a whisk to mix well.
If desired, add more milk or half and half to thicken the consistency. Once the cake has completely cooled, sprinkle the top with frosting.
Enjoy !
