How to Make Natural Yellow Cake Mix
- **Make the Cake Mix:** In a food processor, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 4 tsp baking powder, and ½ tsp salt. Process until well combined.
- **Cut in Butter:** Add 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into 4-5 pieces, to the food processor. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- **Store or Use Immediately:** Use the cake mix immediately or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 month, or freeze for longer storage.
- **Preheat & Prep:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan or two 8-inch round cake pans.
- **Combine Wet Ingredients:** In a large bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- **Mix Wet & Dry:** Add the dry cake mix to the wet ingredients. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute, then increase to medium-high speed and beat for another 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- **Bake:** Pour batter into the prepared pan(s).
- **Baking Time:** For a 9x13 inch cake, bake for 40-50 minutes. For two 8-inch cakes, bake for 25-35 minutes.
- **Test for Doneness:** Insert a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, the cake is done.
- **Cool:** Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes before inverting them onto wire racks to cool completely.
- **Frost (Optional):** Once completely cool, frost your cake with your favorite frosting.
