Preheat your oven to 350℉ then grease and flour a 10” bundt pan. Set the pan aside for now.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Be sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl so all of the butter is evenly blended.
1 cup sugar, ½ cup butter, softened
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition.
3 eggs
Add the vanilla extract and mix again.
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Add the sour cream and milk and mix.
1 cup sour cream, ½ cup milk
Add the flour and cake mix to the bowl and mix into a smooth batter.
1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix, 1 cup flour
Pour the batter into the prepared bundt pan then bake for about 70 minutes.
Check the cake after about 40 minutes. If the top of the cake is turning too dark, loosely place a piece of foil over the pan and continue baking. This will prevent the direct heat of the oven from reaching the cake. The cake is fully baked when a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out cleanly.
Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes then flip it out of the pan onto a wire rack or serving tray. Slice and enjoy!
