cakes, desserts

3 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cup basic cake mix

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Beat eggs until foamy; add milk and vanilla and continue beating. Add dry mixture to eggs, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Pour into a greased 9-inch loaf pan and bake for 1-1/2 hours. Idea: For a fruit shortcake, pour batter into a greased 9-inch square pan and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes. When cook, cut cake into 2-inch squares. Slice each square in half, fill with berries and juice, and replace top half. Cover with sweetened whipped cream. Variation: For a chocolate pound cake, add 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa to the batter before baking. SOURCE: Cheaper & Better, by Nancy Birnes Typed for you by Nancy Coleman
