Ingredients
  

  • 1 box cake mix recipe, any flavor, Shortcut
  • 1 box instant pudding mix, small box, a flavor that compliments the cake flavor
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 cup cooking oil
  • 1 cup warm water

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 180 C (350 F) and pick out a baking pan, either a bundt pan or 9x13 pan. Grease the pan of your choice lightly with butter or cooking spray.
  • For the cake mix and the pudding mix, DO NOT follow the instructions on the boxes, just use the ingredients listed in this recipe. If you are making the homemade cake mixes, prepare per those instructions using the dry ingredients listed.
  • In a mixing bowl, add all the ingredients and mix, beat 2 minutes.
  • Pour into the prepared baking dish and spread out evenly.
  • Bake the 9x13 cake for 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. For a bundt cake, adjust the baking time to 50 to 60 minutes. Allow a bundt cake to cool completely before removing it from the pan.
  • Frost with your choice of frosting if desired, serve and enjoy.

Suggested Cake & Pudding Combinations

  • Devil's Food cake mix and chocolate pudding mix, add 1 cup of chocolate chips to the batter before baking, frost with a chocolate butter cream frosting.
  • White cake mix and vanilla pudding mix, use coconut milk in place of the water, egg whites instead of the eggs, frost with butter cream and sprinkle with coconut.
  • White cake mix and white chocolate pudding mix, use egg whites instead of eggs. (Very slight taste of white chocolate.)
  • Spice cake mix and butterscotch pudding.

Notes

Low cost per cake but keep in mind, adding extras to the cake increases the overall cost per serving.
