Mix and Match Cake and Icing

Posted by Lisa Gill on Amish Living group Amish Recipes

I found a great recipe for making moist cakes and delicious icings! I got the idea out of a taste of home magazine. It had one recipe in but I have tried different kinds of cake mixes and different kinds of yogurts for in the recipe. Using the yogurt gives it flavor and makes the cake so moist. What you will need:

1 box vanilla cake mix

2 - 6-oz. cartons flavor of your choice yogurt

1 - 8-oz. cool whip

Mix the cake according to package directions. Then fold in one carton of yogurt. Bake according to directions. Cool before frosting. Make frosting by putting the cool whip in a bowl and folding in the other carton of yogurt and then spread over cooled cake.

This is so good and you don't have to use vanilla cake mix. I just tried a chocolate cake mix and I used strawberry yogurt for the cake and icing and it was so good!! So you can use your imagination and try different flavors of cake mix with different flavors of yogurt! And using the yogurt gives the cake and icing a little bit of flavor! I love this idea!
