How to Doctor a Gluten Free Yellow Cake Mix.

This recipe is moist and delicious, wonderfully enhanced. I have been making my Betty Crocker Yellow Cake mix this way for so long, I have no idea why I never posted it. Maybe because it disappears as fast as I make it and I never end up snapping a picture. I must confess though, I originally was inspired by this recipe from a "version" of this on a blog somewhere, it had 5 eggs, one extra yolk. I am so sorry I never could find that source again to credit them. They are pure creative genius.

I first tried Betty Crocker yellow boxed cake mix when I just started going gluten free and regular gluten filled cakes were still fresh in my mind. I was turned off by the graininess of the cakes. I am sorry Betty, I mean no disrespect. I am truly grateful that this mix exists and is main stream. I just needed to work with it like I do everything else. It's a sort of a flaw of mine, I know. I set out to doctor up the cake mix to suite my taste. What I ended up with is good. Very good. When I make it for birthdays nobody realizes it is Gluten Free. It's hysterical how self declared anti-gluten eating folks gobble this up and never realize what they just had WAS gluten free. Tee hee, makes me giggle in delight.

1 box of Betty Crocker's Gluten Free Yellow Cake Mix
1 3.4 ounce box of Vanilla pudding
1/3 cup Sugar
3/4's cup of Orange Juice
1/2 cup Oil
4 eggs
1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Spray Olive Oil onto two 8-inch baking pans.

In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, gelatin powder, sugar, juice, oil, eggs and vanilla.
Beat on low speed for 3 minutes or until incorporated.
Pour equally into two greased 8-inch round baking pans.
Bake at 350° for about 35-37 minutes or until tooth pick inserted comes out clean.
Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.

Notes:
Betty Crocker Gluten Free cake mixes made according to the package instructions only makes a ONE layer cake. With the increased ingredients of this recipe, you can get two 8" layers out of one box! See:
