The Most Addictive Cake You’ll Ever Make – Best Mother’s “Crack” Cake
I’m not exaggerating when I say this is the most addictive cake I’ve ever eaten. My husband and I can easily finish the whole thing in just a day (two, if we manage to hide it from the kids!). Moist, sweet, and irresistibly spiced—it’s the kind of cake that vanishes fast.
Ingredients
1 box Duncan Hines yellow cake mix
¼ cup brown sugar
¼ cup white sugar
1 box instant vanilla pudding mix
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
4 eggs
¾ cup water
¾ cup vegetable oil
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease and flour a bundt pan to make sure the cake releases easily after baking.
2. Mix the Batter
In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, brown sugar, white sugar, pudding mix, and cinnamon. Add in the eggs, water, and oil, and beat on medium speed until the batter is smooth and fully mixed.
3. Pour into Pan
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared bundt pan.
4. Bake
Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
5. Cool
Let the cake cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Optional Glaze (Extra Decadent!)
Want to take it over the top? Add this simple glaze:
Ingredients:
¼ cup butter, melted
½ cup sugar
¼ cup water
Instructions: In a small saucepan, combine the butter, sugar, and water. Bring to a boil, stirring until the sugar fully dissolves. Pour the warm glaze over the cooled cake for a glossy, sweet finish.
