I am going to make the WASC recipe for the first time today. My question is, can I substitute melted butter for the oil? I always do this in my other box mix cakes, but I want to be sure that it doesn't change the consistency or rising or anything. TIA!!

Anyone???

I don't know - I've never tried. But since you do it in your other recipes and it works, I don't see why it wouldn't work here too. May not be as moist as with oil, but there is so little oil in this recipe anyway...

That's what I always do.

Yes, you can. I always used melted butter.

Let us know how you like it I am curious!

what is a wasc cake?

ZAKIA6, WASC is a White Almond Sour Cream cake, and it is WONDERFUL!!! I didn't use the melted butter, since I didn't get replys to the post before I started baking. But in using the original recipe, I was very, very pleased with it! The taste was great! Even though I thought it was a bit sweet, everyone else raved about it! Definitely a keeper in my recipe box!

Thanks for everyone's input! Next time I'll try it with butter!
