Look awesome I will make
Since no one makes an 18.25 box of cake mix anymore, what does one use?
Hi, what's the substitution for scratch baking please?
Nprintz I have been adding 3 more ounces of cake mix Buy 2 cake mixes .
I really wanted to love this recipe as is, and it sure was pretty! Next time I make it, I will try making a cake from scratch; the mix I used made the cake taste too chemical-y (maybe there's a better brand vs what I bought). I'll also either double the apricots and/or use a little less amaretto in the filling...it was pretty runny and I felt like it could have used more of the apricot flavor. Finally, there was a lot of extra frosting...I might cut that in half.
