Hi, I’m Hilary Erickson from The Pregnancy Nurse.
When I’m “doctoring” a boxed cake mix to make it taste more special, I usually:
- Swap melted butter for the oil
- Use milk instead of water
- Add an extra egg or two for richness
Those simple changes make the texture a bit more like a from‑scratch cake, even though my kids mostly just care that there is cake.
Are you making a particular flavor or theme for this cake?
