• Or 2 8x10 disposable pans for firm cakes (that are great for bake sales.).
• In a large mixing bowl, place the cake mix, sour cream, 4 Tablespoons butter and the egg.
• Blend on low speed just until the mixture forms a thick dough (about 1 minute).
• Gently press the dough evenly over the bottom of your chosen pan(s) so that it reaches the sides.
