Ingredients

Scale

Cake Mix Base

  • 1 Cake mix box (450 g box, any flavor)

Liquid Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) vegetable or canola oil (or the quantity the box calls for)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) water (or the quantity the box calls for)
  • 1/4 cup (60 g) plain yogurt

Optional Ingredient

  • 1/4 cup (35 g) all-purpose flour (optional, helps improve texture)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare pan: Preheat your oven to 350º F (180º C). Line an 8-inch (20 cm) round cake pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it with baking spray combined with flour to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, water, oil, plain yogurt, and all-purpose flour if using. Mix until all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated but avoid overmixing to maintain a tender crumb.
  3. Pour batter: Pour the prepared batter evenly into the lined and greased cake pan, smoothing the top with a spatula if needed.
  4. Bake the cake: Bake according to the time indicated on the cake mix box, usually around 25 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  5. Cool: Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before unmolding. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting or serving.

Notes

  • Using plain yogurt adds moisture and richness to the cake, replacing the binding and leavening role of eggs.
  • The optional flour helps give structure to the cake but can be omitted for a lighter texture.
  • Ensure not to overmix the batter to avoid developing gluten which can toughen the cake.
  • You can substitute the oil with melted coconut oil or another neutral oil if preferred.
  • For a dairy-free alternative, use a plant-based yogurt.
  • Baking times may vary depending on the cake mix flavor and oven accuracy, so begin checking for doneness 5 minutes before the box’s recommended time.
