Easy White Cake/Cupcakes

This is probably one of the yummiest white cake recipes I have found. I saw this on ourbestbites.com. They turned out super moist and had great flavor.

I made these in May (just getting around to post) and then again for the 4th of July. We layered the batter in red, white and blue!

Easy White Cake (our best bites)

• 1 box white cake mix(or yellow)
• 1 cup flour
• 1 cup sugar
• 3/4 tsp salt
• 4 egg whites
• 1 1/3 cups water
• 2 tbsp oil
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 tsp vanilla extract (use clear vanilla if you want a pure white cake)
• 1 tsp almond extract

Mix all dry ingredients with a whisk, then add wet ingredients. Beat for 2 minutes until fluffy.

For cake: Pour into greased, floured pans (fills two 8 or 9" rounds) and bake according to cake pkg. directions.

(Tip: When cakes come out, cool for 5 minutes on wire rack, then cover with 2 sheets of plastic wrap ( in a + sign), turn them out and wrap the plastic around them. Allow to cool all wrapped up (keeps the moisture from evaporating out) then pop into the freezer on a cutting board to keep them flat. Once they are frozen, they are super easy to frost and defrost in about 30 minutes.)

For cupcakes: Fill paperliners about 3/4 full and bake according to pkg. directions. Makes 36 cupcakes.
