How to Make Grocery Store Gossip Pound Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, sour cream, eggs, oil, and vanilla extract.
  3. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  4. Pour batter into the prepared 9x13 inch pan and spread evenly.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. The cake will also spring back slightly when gently pressed.
  6. Let the cake cool completely in the pan before frosting or serving. A light brushing of melted butter enhances the flavor.
  7. Enjoy! This cake is perfect for any occasion.
