3-Ingredient Cake

Ingredients:

1 box cake mix

3 large eggs

1 cup (240 ml) whole milk

Instructions

Preheat and Prepare

Preheat your oven to the temperature recommended on the cake mix box. This ensures even, consistent baking.

Grease and lightly flour your chosen cake pan — round, square, or bundt — whatever suits your style. Set aside while you prepare the batter.

Make the Batter

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, and whole milk.

Using a whisk or an electric mixer on medium speed, beat until the batter is smooth and creamy, with no lumps remaining. The texture should be light and velvety — a promise of the perfect cake to come.

Bake to Perfection

Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top if needed.

Bake according to the time and temperature on the cake mix package. As it bakes, your kitchen will fill with a sweet, inviting aroma.

To test for doneness, insert a toothpick into the center — if it comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs, your cake is ready.

Cool and Serve

Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting or serving.

Enjoy it as-is, dusted with powdered sugar, or topped with your favorite frosting for a beautiful finishing touch.

Tips:

Add a teaspoon of vanilla or almond extract for an extra layer of flavor.

For variety, fold in chocolate chips, berries, or zest of citrus before baking.

This recipe works beautifully with any boxed cake mix — from chocolate to lemon to red velvet.
