Homemade Yellow Cake Recipe

  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil, plus more for pan
  • All-purpose flour (for pan)
  • Homemade Yellow Cake Mix
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups favorite frosting
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour a 13×9″ baking dish.
  2. Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat cake mix, eggs, vanilla, 1/3 cup oil, and 1 cup water in a large bowl until combined, about 2 minutes. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake cake until surface springs back to the touch and cake is set and golden brown, 25–30 minutes. Let cool completely, then turn out onto a platter before frosting.
  3. Cake can be made 3 days ahead; store at room temperature.
