Anyone have a recpie to share?

Start with a DH white cake mix and add anything raspberry you can find replacing the water, sourcream and flavorings. Jello, Yogurt, coffee syrup, etc. Try the WASC with the raspberry flavors. If they make a concentrated raspberry drink that would work well for the liquid or maybe melted sherbert like the creamsicle recipe.

Here is one I found.

1pkg white mix
1 pkg ras jello mix
4 eggs
1 1/4 ras yogert
1/3 cup oil

Mix all and bake.....

I just tried this one but after it was done I realized my oven was on 335.

It came out a bit too dense. if I had the oven at 350 would it have been fine? The flavor is not bad.

Any more suggestions.

The oven temperature shouldn't have affected the density. How long did you mix it? Should have been mixed on med. for at least 2 minutes.

it said to mix it for only two min. and I think I did about 4-5 min.
maybe I over mixed it?

I've got a couple other things to try today. icon_lol.gif We'll see how they go.

I haven't got a recipe for a raspberry-flavored cake, but I do have a doctored mix recipe for a white cake with raspberry swirl:

Box White Cake (I prefer DH)
Eggs, oil, water as per box instructions
Extra egg
Box of vanilla pudding

Jar raspberry preserves, seedless

Mix all well as if it were a box mix regular.
Swirl in seedless raspberry preserves, and bake.

The extra egg and pudding is what makes the cake dense enough to support the swirl, without them the swirl would sink to the bottom..yuck.

But I just [edit] recalled [edit] that off of the top of my head---if anyone spots an error, feel free to correct me!

I just got the most delicious recipe from natskys, and I hope she doesn't mind that I share it with you. I made it for a Mardi Gras cake yesterday and everyone RAVED about it . It is truly delicious.

Rasberry cake

1 box of Duncan Hines White cake mix
1 package of instant vanilla pudding
1 package of rasberry jell-o mix
4 eggs
1 cup of homogenized milk
1/2 cup of vegetable oil
1 cup of rasberry puree (I cook frozen rasberries with a bit of brown sugar until it renders down thick)

Mix everything together, beat until smooth. Pour into greased and floured cake pan. Bake at 325 F for about 40 minutes..or until done.

She suggested layering this between layers of chocolate cake w/ Swiss buttercream filling, which I did, but the cake was absolutey delicious on its own. I ate a piece without frosting or anything and mmmmm!!!
