to DH Classic White cake mix to make it more moist? I've made this according to the directions on the box and it comes out dry and cracking every time. icon_cry.gif

I have a box of Wh Ch pudding mix I can add but what else can I add that will still keep it looking white? Another egg white? More oil? Water? icon_sad.gif

add 1/2 box of pudding mix, 1/3 c applesauce and another egg white. That should help icon_smile.gif

That's so funny....I was honestly just thinking today how moist my DH mixes always come out icon_smile.gif I usually make as the box says, but you can always add applesauce in place of the oil to make it moister...and a little more heart friendly. Jodie

You should try the White Almond Sour Cream recipe in the recipe section. I got rave reviews from it. It's really moist! I also played with the recipe using a yellow mix and I find that even better tasting than the white.

Also, the cracking is a result of a high oven temperature...lower it a bit, to maybe 325, and cook it longer.
