Quick question: Can I replace the water in a cake mix with whole milk without causing baking problems? TIA, Cass

Yep, no problem. Cake Mix is a pretty durable industrial product.

I do it every time with out any problems

It's not recommended for chocolate (although many do) becuase it tends to add a bitter taste to the chocolate. Some can detect it, others can't.

yeppers i've even replaced it with pineapple juice

....I use flavored coffee syrups.....

I've used coffee and buttermilk in chocolate cake before.

Many things could make it taste better...dont be afraid to experiment!
I do it all the time with the coffee syrups....trying different flavors on different cakes....its actually pretty fun to see how its gonna turn out!

Just an idea.... I

I like using soft drink instead of water too. Try Sprite in Lemon cake mix.

For those of you who use different liquids - do you use this in place of the water....or is it a 50/50 combination?

I usually use the other liquid in place of the water. So if it calls of 1 cup of water I use 1 cup of milk or soda or juice, ect. instead.

I use liquid coffee creamers in cake mixes usually 50/50 with water.

Thanks! I can't wait to try this...I have not tried doctoring cake mixes yet but if I can make a cake from scratch I would think I could do this. I just bought the Cake Mix Doctor and the Cake Mix Doctor for Chocolate too - I have to make time to try something this week...Wish me luck!!
