Devils Food Cake Mix

When cooking with Devil's Food Cake Mix, people often rush through the steps or don't take the time to properly measure the wet ingredients. This rushing may result in a cake that's either too dry or too dense. It's also common for people to miss out on the opportunity to enhance cake flavors by adding extra ingredients such as coffee, different kinds of extracts or spices. To get the most out of your Devil's Food Cake Mix, make sure to follow the package instructions meticulously. However, you can play around a bit by adding a dash of instant coffee powder to the mix to deepen the chocolate flavor, or a hint of almond or vanilla extract for extra flavor. A touch of cayenne pepper or cinnamon can also add a surprising and enriching taste. Remember, the key to a fluffy and light cake is not to over mix the batter when you combine the wet and dry ingredients. Over mixing can make your cake turn out chewy due to the gluten formation. It's better to combine until just mixed. Baking at the right temperature and for the correct length is also crucial. Keep these tips in mind, and you'll surely bake a devilishly delicious cake! Another tip is using cake mix for cookies or brownies! Just add two eggs and half a cup of oil to your cake mix, drop the batter by spoonfuls onto a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F (176 degrees C) for 8-10 minutes for a quick and easy cookie recipe.
