Butter Cake Mix

There is so much you can do with a basic Butter Cake Mix...

Now you can make a basic Butter Cake with -
185g Butter (soft)
1 Cup Castor Sugar
1 tsp Vanilla Essence
3 Eggs
2 Cups of Self Raising Flour
1/4 Cup of Milk

Mix together and bake in a pre heated oven for 45minutes on 180 degrees.

however... sometimes you can pick up a easy packet  butter cake mix for 99c!!!

So here is one of my versions! This is what you will need... (the cheats way with a packet cake)

Mash 2 bananas well in a mixing bowl and add your butter cake mix, stir well together.

 

I made muffins with mine, rather than a cake...
Baked them in the oven until they spring up when you touch them, or if you put a skewer in them and it comes out clean...

Squeeze the juice of one lemon, add icing sugar until the consistency is right. Add butter and milk as you need it! I like my icing thick so I can pipe the icing on!

Wait until you cake or muffins are cool before icing. I also love grating some rind off the lemons to sprinkle on top! Yummo!!

Baby Cupcakes are great for the kids!!

Other things you can add to your basic Butter Cake Mix are
- Chocolate Chips
