Description
- 1 15.25 ounce red velvet cake mix
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup whole milk Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup whole milk
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Ingredients
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Use (additional) butter or non-stick cooking spray to coat the bottom and inside edges of three cake pans to prevent sticking.
- In a large bowl, combine cake mix, flour and sugar. Stir to make sure everything is mixed together.
- Add Greek yogurt, butter, milk, eggs and vanilla and use a hand-mixer or stand mixer to combine, scraping the sides and bottom halfway through to make sure your batter evenly combines.
- Divide cake batter between three pans and bake for about 22-25 minutes or until top of the cake is spongy to the touch or a toothpick inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean.
- Let cake cool and then use a knife to help release the edges of the cakes before flipping the cakes onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cakes are cool, top one layer completely with your preferred icing. (I absolutely LOVE buttercream icing with this cake, though I know cream cheese icing is the more traditional route.) Add next layer and repeat until you have three layers of cake, all covered with icing.
- Slice and enjoy!
