I ALWAYS use the cake mix extender recipe from here with my yellow cakes. I would like to use it for my Devil's Food as well, but do I need to also add some Cocoa powder? How much?
THANKS!
When I "doctor" my Devils Food mixes, I add 3 tablespoons cocoa powder. This is the only way I like chocolate cake!

I found one on CC that I use over and over and I can't remember who posted it but it is awesome!
1 box devils food or fudge cake mix
1 C sugar
2/3 C all purpose flour
1/3 C cocoa (I use dutch proceesed)
3/4 tsp salt
1/8 C oil
2 tsp vanilla
3 eggs
1 C sour cream
All my customers RAVE about how good this cake is!
one box choc cake mix
one cup flour
one cup sugar
one cup sour cream
4 eggs
dash salt
1/3 cup oil
one box choc pudding
1/3 cup strong coffee (or 4 tb instant coffee disolved in water.)
i have no clue where i got this- but its good! very durable too!
I'm having the hardest time with this. I've tried the cake mix extender recipe with Devil's Food mix, replacing the 1 C. flour with 2/3 flour 1/3 cocoa. I've done it 4 times and each time ended up a burnt mess on the bottom of my oven? What in the world am I doing wrong?

I can't imagine what could be going wrong. Are you using the recipe exactly as I have it listed? You have to ignore what's on the back of the cake box. Is your oven on 325 F ? Are you filling the pans no more than half full? I've used this mostly with the butter fudge mix but I have used it at least 3-4 times with the devils food mix and it was great EVERY time. As a matter of fact, I'm headed to the kitchen now to make one for a birthday.
Hope you get it resolved because it is a great cake.
thanks! I've been making so many white and yellow cakes I feel like I've forgotten how to do chocolate!
When I make chocolate cake, I use the Darn Good Chocolate cake recipe...it is the BEST!! And not that different from the extender.
Ok, I tried the Cake extender on here for chocolate fudge cake, but I made some substitutions and YUM!!!!!
1 Cake Mix Box (I used Chocolate Fudge Cake)
1 cup All purpose flour
1 cup white granulated sugar
1 generous dash of salt
3 large eggs
1/3 cup milk
1/4 milk
1 cup Sour Cream (8 oz.)
1 cup melted butter
1 Tablespoon of Vanilla If making a white cake, use clear vanilla so cake will not discolor
** If making a chocolate cake:
1 box pudding mix (I used chocolate fudge pudding, too)
For this recipe you are only going to use the actual cake mix powder, do NOT also add the ingredients from directions on the cake mix box. Just ignore any other ingredients or directions listed on the cake mix packaging.
Preheat Oven to 330°
1. Mix flour, sugar, cake mix, **pudding, and salt together with fork, set aside.
2. Into Mixer bowl put eggs, milk, sour cream, butter, and vanilla.
3. Add dry ingredients and mix well on (about 2 minutes on low speed).
4. Bake at 330° for 65 minutes for 9 in. cake pan.
I did this not to long ago. I used the recipe as is plus added 1/3rd cup cocoa to it. I got rave reviews on it!
