Don't bake it as long.

Still dry

Well, just add another one, dummy. I’m surprised a box mix would call for all those eggs, though. They’re supposed to be pretty much all set up without needing anything else.

Anyway: extra egg (whole), and make sure you’re not baking at too high a heat, or for longer than necessary.

Tell us everything you're putting in it. Amounts and all.

I've heard an extra egg, or an extra yolk, or pudding mix, or sour cream (gives a pretty distinct tang, though).

You're welcome.

Bake at 300F for 15 mins. Take out of oven and let it rest for about 5 to 10 mins. Put it back in the oven and let it bake for 30 to 35 minutes more.

Butter instead of vegetable oil
Add an extra egg
Literally perfect moist cake every time

an extra yolk would be better, not the whole egg. yolks provide emulsification, fat, stabilization, and richness. whites are basically just like adding water. they provide structure and that's about it. they have no taste and they tend to dry out your baked goods.

>>13787273
keep in mind that butter isn't a simple 1:1 substitute for vegetable oil because butter is only 80% fat, unless if it's clarified butter or butter with all the water boiled out of it. so more butter would need to be added.
