This simple cake works perfectly during the holidays, on a buffet table or in a picnic basket! And you won't believe the aroma that comes from your oven during baking!

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (18.25 ounce) package moist white cake mix
1 (5 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
¾ cup vegetable oil
¾ cup white wine
4 eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour one 10 inch bundt pan.
  • In medium bowl combine the cake mix, instant vanilla pudding, nutmeg, vegetable oil, white wine, and eggs. Beat with an electric mixer for 5 minutes.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cake cool on rack in pan for 10 minutes then remove cake from pan to rack. Let cake cool completely before slicing. Garnish sliced cake with a dollop of whipped cream or dust with confectioners' sugar and sliced strawberries.
  • Variation: You can also "flour" the pan after it's been greased with cocoa powder or a cinnamon sugar mixture for a textured crust. Simply fill a clean salt shaker for easy application. This will eliminate that "white stuff" on the outside of your baked cake which makes for a prettier cake.

Categories     Breads

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 8x8 cake, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 cups fruit

Steps:

  • Preheat the over to 350F (180C). Butter an 8x8 baking dish.
  • In a big bowl whisk together the eggs and the sugar just until it all comes together, about 30 seconds, no more.
  • Add the flour (and baking powder if using) and wisk together just until the flour disappears and there are no more lumps, about 45 seconds, no more. The batter will be quite thick and there won't be a lot of it.
  • Spread the fruit over the bottom of the dish and spread the batter over. It will barely cover the fruit and it'll look like it's not enough, but it will be great. Alternatively you can mix the fruit with the batter.
  • Bake for 45-55 minutes depending on your oven. A toothpick inserted into the cake should come out clean when the cake is ready.
