How to Make Cake Mix Muffins

Most people have made cupcakes with cake mix. Have you ever tried making muffins? They are denser, travel well and do not require frosting. Unlike muffin mixes which usually only yield 6 muffins. This simple easy recipe will make one dozen. These are a great alternative to cookies.
They are great for back-yard barbecues or any gathering when dealing with frosting, cake knives and such aren't desirable. Just grab and go.
Kids love them.

Things You'll Need

• 1 box of cake mix, any flavor
• 2 or 3 eggs (according to the cake mix directions)
• 1/3 cup oil (according to the cake mix directions)
• tablespoon of water

Instructions

1. 

   Preheat oven to 350.

2. 

   Mix all ingredients on medium-high speed of your mixer. You should have a consistency like peanut butter.
   If it is too thick, add only a little more water, a teaspoon or so.

3. 

   Line muffin pan with paper muffin cups. Fill about 2/3 full. Bake approximately 30 minutes.

4. 

   These muffins have a good consistency and very nice tops and may be eaten plain or with toppings.
   There is no need to frost as they will be slightly sweeter than cake.

Tips & Warnings

• Also try them toasted. Slit in half and butter. Brown under the broiler, in a toaster oven or on a skillet.

• I have used Duncan Hines, Pillsbury and Betty Crocker with equal results.

• Try a variety of flavors.
