Homemade Yellow Cake Mix Subtitute 1825oz Betty Crocker Box Food

HOMEMADE YELLOW CAKE MIX

Steps:

• For the cake mix: Whisk together the flour, sugar, dry milk, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Store in a resealable bag in a cool dry place for up to 3 months until ready to use.
• To bake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two 9-inch cake pans with parchment. Coat with cooking spray.
• Whisk 1 1/4 cup water, oil, eggs and vanilla in a large bowl until well combined and slightly frothy. Add the dry mix and whisk vigorously until well combined and smooth, about 50 strokes. Divide between the prepared cake pans. Bake until lightly golden and slightly puffed and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool in the pans 5 minutes, then turn out onto a cooling rack right-side up to cool completely. Frost and decorate as desired.
• For cupcakes: Place liners in pans for 24 cupcakes. Fill each cup 2/3 full. Bake at 350 degrees F until golden, puffed and a toothpick comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through. Cool completely before frosting as desired.

• Cake can also be baked in a 13 x 9 inch or Bundt pan.
• For orange marble cake: reserve 1 cup of the batter add to it 2 to 3 squares melted and cooled semi-sweet chocolate, add orange zest to remaining yellow batter and swirl chocolate batter through orange batter for marbled effect.

HOMEMADE WHITE CAKE MIX (SUBTITUTE 18.25OZ BETTY CROCKER BOX)

Steps:

• Combine the ingredients. Store in a sealed, labeled container or baggie with the directions to make the cake. (This mix will fit in a quart-size baggie, just barely.) If you want to double, triple, or more the mix to make in bulk and keep it all in one big container, stir the mix well and measure out 5 cups of mix each time you make a cake (or a bit more if you used cake flour).
• To replace in recipes calling for a store-bought white cake mix: Use in any recipe calling for a white cake mix as a base (add 1 teaspoon vanilla to the recipe along with the cake mix as the recipe will assume powdered vanilla flavoring was included in the store-bought mix).
• Or to make a basic white cake using your homemade mix, use the following instructions : 1 recipe Homemade White Cake Mix + 1 1/4 cups water + 1/2 cup shortening + 4 egg whites + 1 teaspoon vanilla.
• Combine all the ingredients. Beat to mix on low, then beat on high for two minutes. Pour into greased, floured cake pans. Bake at 350-degrees.
• Baking Time : 8″ or 9″ cake rounds - 20-25 minutes / 13 x 9 pan - 35-40 minutes / cupcakes - 12-15 minutes / tube/bundt pan - 45-50 minutes.
• To make this mix without using powdered milk: Delete the dried milk from the mix ingredients. When preparing the cake, replace the 1 1/4 cups water with 1 1/3 cups milk or buttermilk. I've also used coconut milk with this recipe. You can use any kind of milk you want.
• Just remember that recipes calling for a store-bought white cake mix are going to assume the mix contains powdered milk. Also remember, if you make the mix in bulk, instead of measuring out 5 cups per cake, you'd measure out 4 1/2 cups (to make up for the 1/2 cup powdered milk that's not in there).

DIY HOMEMADE YELLOW CAKE MIX

Steps:

• Add all ingredients, except the butter, into a food processor.
• Process for 15 seconds, until combined.
• Add the butter and lightly fluff with a fork to coat with the flour mixture.
• Add vanilla, then pulse until the mixture is crumbly and fine.
• Use immediately in any recipe calling for yellow cake mix, or freeze immediately in a zipper bag for up to 2 months.
• NOTES:.
• If not using right away, transfer to a zipper bag and freeze immediately.
• If you allow the mixture to sit out too long, the butter will start melting and change the texture of the dry mix.
• If this does happen, freeze it for about 1 hour then throw it back in the food processor and pulse until it reaches the fine consistency.
