This three-ingredient “Are You Kidding Me?” Cake is perfect for anyone who wants a quick, homemade dessert with almost no effort. With just a box of cake mix, three eggs, and a cup of milk, you can make a soft, fluffy cake that works for any flavor and any occasion. The steps are simple: preheat your oven according to the cake mix instructions, prepare your baking pan, and mix the ingredients until the batter is smooth and pourable. Once it’s in the oven, the cake fills the kitchen with a warm, familiar aroma, and it’s ready when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. A short cooling period is all it needs before serving.

What makes this recipe especially appealing is how easily it can be personalized. You can enhance it with extracts, chocolate chips, nuts, berries, powdered sugar, or your favorite frosting. Each variation adds something unique without adding complexity. The result is a surprisingly flavorful cake that feels satisfying despite its simplicity, often leaving people amazed that it comes together with just three basic ingredients.
