Super Cheap Recipes with Cake Mix

December 5, 2019 by TheBestDessertRecipes

As much as I love baking dessert recipes from scratch, it’s really, really hard to beat the allure of recipes with cake mix. Not only does cake mix make for a pretty delicious treat, but it also makes baking so easy!

Recipes with Cake Mix
Instead of needing a ton of different ingredients (which, to stock them in your pantry all the time can get a bit expensive), baking recipes with cake mix means that you only really need a handful of ingredients. I’m all about keeping it simple in the kitchen, especially when it comes to prep because, I’ll admit, sometimes I forget to add ingredients to recipes because I’m trying to move too fast. But now I’m baking with cake mix!

What I really like best about cake mix recipes, however, is how many different varieties of dessert I can make with a single box of cake mix. Granted, I can’t make a ton of different treats with the same box of cake mix, but you know what I mean, right? I can use cake mix to make cake mix cakes, cake mix cookies, dessert bars, cake balls, dump cake recipes… The possibilities are honestly almost endless!

These are just a few of my favorite recipes with cake mix that I’ve made (multiple times) in the past. Yes ma’am, I am all about that cake mix.
