Homemade Jiffy Yellow Cake

Lee

This recipe uses the Homemade Jiffy Cake Mix, which is the small box and only makes a single layer 8 inch round or square cake or 12 cupcakes. This cake will not be yellow like the boxed version. I made this cake on 2 Sep 2021 to test out the Jiffy cake mix, and this is very good cake!

Ingredients

1 recipe Jiffy Yellow Cake Mix, Shortcut
1 egg
½ cup cold water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Instructions

For the Baking Pan, feel free to use one 8 or 9 inch round pan, a 8x8 inch pan, or a cupcake pan with 12 cells.
Preheat your oven to 180° C (350° F), get out the appropriate baking pan you want to use. Grease the pan with butter or cooking spray and then coat with flour, line bottom with parchment paper if not serving from the pan. For cupcakes, grease and flour cells or use cupcake liners.
Place all ingredients in a mixing bowl, use an electric mix on low speed for 30 seconds, then 3-4 more minutes on medium speed. Or beat by hand for 5-6 minutes.
Pour batter into cake pan or fill cupcake cells ½ full.
Bake for 25-30 minutes for 8 inch round pan.
20-25 minutes for 9 inch round pan.
20-25 minutes for 8 inch square pan.
15-20 minutes for cupcakes.
Cake is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool on a wire rack 10 minutes, and then if not serving from the pan, remove cake from pan and cool completely on a wire rack. Frost cake as desired after the cake is completely cooled.
Frost as desired, serve and enjoy.
