Made this for my daughter's birthday, when I realized that we didn't have a cake mix in the house. It turned out light, and fluffy, and everyone was asking for more! It will be my standard from now on. Thanks!

I love this recipe because of it's simplicity and the fact it uses things I usually have around. It worked perfectly and made a lovely fine textured cake. Light and delicious, much better than a cake mix! I was looking for a recipe to make a jello poke cake with and this was perfect. I'm including a picture of the cake after decoration as well... Thanks for posting.
