Ingredients
- 1 box white cake mix 15.25 ounces
- 1 box instant cheesecake pudding mix 3.4 ounces
- ¾ cup milk 2% or whole
- ¾ cup vegetable oil
- 4 egg lightly beaten, large
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract or vanilla paste
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
For the Cheesecake Frosting:
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened to room temperature
- 2 tablespoons butter softened to room temperature, unsalted
- 2 cups powdered sugar sifted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or vanilla paste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 12-cup bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray – preferably one for baking. This will help ensure a clean release of the bundt cake from the pan.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment, or with a hand mixer in a large bowl, beat together the cake and pudding mixes, milk, oil, eggs, vanilla and almond extracts. Beat for about two minutes on medium speed until well combined.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and smooth the top with a spoon or spatula.
- Bake in preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool on a wire rack for 45 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate.
- Once the cake has cooled completely, prepare the cream cheese frosting.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together cream cheese and butter until well combined, about 5 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl with a spatula as necessary.
- With the mixer on low, gradually add the confectioners’ sugar until thoroughly incorporated and smooth. Add vanilla and mix to combine. Turn the mixer to medium speed and mix for approximately 5 more minutes, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl with a spatula as necessary.
- Spread onto cooled cake. If desired, top with sprinkles - the cake will look like a giant donut with sprinkles.
Notes
- My favorite brand of cake mix for these doctored cake mixes is Betty Crocker.
