Thank You: Making cake mixes taste home made

Misc.
ADVERTISEMENT
Hello again Jo,

No the sour cream doesn't replace the liquid in the directions on the box, it's in addition to the other ingredients.

Another cooking tip is to add a couple of tablespoons (approx.) of lemon juice to the cream cheese icing for carrot cake. It really livens it up and takes away that overly sweet taste.
