What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
French Vanilla Cupcakes

Delicate cupcakes made from a French vanilla cake mix. The additional sour cream makes the cupcakes more moist (hint: adding sour cream to any cake mix helps make it taste less like a cake mix!). These cupcakes are perfect for decorating.

ingredients
1 box (18.25 ounce size) French vanilla cake mix
3 eggs
1 cup water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup sour cream
directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place cupcake liners in muffin pans.
Beat the eggs until uniform in color. Beat in the water and set aside.
Empty the cake mix into a large mixing bowl. On low speed, add the vegetable oil and egg mixture. Beat at low speed until the ingredients are just moistened.
With the mixer running, slowly add the sour cream and mix until combined. Increase mixer speed to medium and beat for 2 minutes or until creamy.
Divide the batter between the cupcake liners. Place the pan in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 20 minutes or until the cupcakes test done in the middle (stick a toothpick in the middle and if it comes out dry or with moist crumbs attached then it is done).
Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes then remove to a wire rack to cool completely. When cool, frost as desired.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
