8 ingredient Yellow Cake

I found this a couple of years ago and have been using it ever since. I have recently started adding other flavorings instead of vanilla with some great results!

I DID NOT have ANY luck with this cake. Good thing I tried it a couple of days before the cake was due.... I had time to recover with my cake extender stand by. The cake stuck (Even with greased Wilton pans!) and when I was retrieving the scraps, it didn't really taste that great.
