Notes
- Many of the boxed cake mix companies have decreased the size of the boxed cake mixes from 15.25 to 13.25 ounces. While not every recipe can use the two sizes interchangeably, for this recipe you can use either size cake mix.
- You don't need to include the ingredients listed on the box for making the cake.
- Regular cream cheese can be swapped for whipped cream cheese, but then an electric mixer if needed. If using regular cream cheese cut the cream cheese into pieces then allow it to sit on the counter for 10-15 minutes. Then with an electric mixer whip the cream cheese in a mixing bowl until smooth. This whipped cream cheese can then be mixed with the eggs and sugar, and added to the pan.
