Health and fertility benefits of Sugar-and-Spice Cake Recipe | Myrecipes

Researchers believe that cranberries contain substances that prevent infection-causing bacteria from sticking to the urinary tract walls. However, store-bought cranberry juice is typically all sugar - so make sure to stick with straight cranberries.

Ingredients

1 (18.25-oz.) package white cake mix
1 (16-oz.) container sour cream
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons apple pie spice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
Vanilla Buttercream
Garnishes: sparkling sugar, clear edible glitter, rosemary sprigs, pecan halves, cranberries

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 °. Beat together first 6 ingredients and, if desired, almond extract at low speed with an electric mixer just until dry ingredients are moistened. Increase speed to medium, and beat 2 minutes or until batter is smooth, stopping to scrape down bottom and sides of bowl as needed. Pour batter into 3 greased and floured 8-inch round cake pans.
Bake at 350 ° for 20 to 22 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans on wire racks 5 minutes; remove from pans to wire racks, and cool completely (about 1 hour). Wrap in plastic wrap, and freeze 1 hour or up to 1 month.
Spread Vanilla Buttercream between layers and on top and sides of cake. Garnish, if desired.
