Has anyone ever used the classic white by DH and used the extender receipe with it? I notice that on the box the original receipe only calls for 2 tablespoons of oil. The extender adds an additional cup of oil.

I'm not sure which extender recipe you are using, but I did find this one here on the site which is very similar to a recipe that I use & get really great reviews!!! I like the recipe you can find on the cakeboss's website (advertised her on CC) under their recipe section for free.

Here's a link to the one here on CC: http://www.cakecentral.com/cake_recipe-1977-41-Cake-Mix-extender.html

Good luck!

What extender recipe are you using? Neither of the ones on this site, nor any extender recipe I've ever used called for oil.

Hi guys,

The extender receipe that I use calls for

1 cup flour
¾ cup sugar
½ cup oil
2/3 cup milk or water
1 tsp. baking powder

I got if from a lady off one of the Wilton forums. I believe her name was hpjmon. Here is the link.

This is the only receipe that I have been using and I love it.

Now, I'm confused.... icon_confused.gif

The recipe you use (and provided) calls for 1/2 cup of oil. What extender recipe are you inquiring about that does use 1 cup of oil?

My favorite extended (doctored) cake mix recipe is the WASC cake.

HI Jan,

The receipe that I use is listed in the post. It calls for a 1/2 cup of oil in addition to the oil that is called for in the cake mix.

I use BC cake mixes and add 1 box of instant pudding to the mix as per my Wilton Instructor, (the dry pudding mix ) while mixing the cake following the recipe on the box the only thing is I use whatever flavor of pudding the cake is and like for red velvet and others I use Vanilla flavor and I get great reviews for my cakes.


Hope this helps icon_biggrin.gif

The 'extender' recipe is really (or should be!) the same as my original WASC recipe.
The one you got is somebody's 'tweaked' version.
My original WASC recipe has be in exsistence for more than 20 years.
It is a tried and true recipe that yeilds a very moist & yummy cake! icon_smile.gif
