You can either use white, vanilla or yellow cake mix for this recipe. You can also use fresh dates but in this recipe, I rehydrate mine because they were super dry.
@Preheat the oven to 375f before starting@
Ingredients:
⁃ One box cake mix I used white cake mix
⁃ 1 1/2 cups of chopped dates (if they are dry sprinkle a tbs of baking soda and a cup of water and microwave for two minutes, let it sit in the warm water for 15-20 minutes then drain)
⁃ 3 eggs
⁃ 1/2 c vegetable oil
⁃ 1 cup water or milk
⁃ 1 tbs cinnamon powder
⁃ 1/2 tsp cardamom powder
⁃ 1 tsp vanilla extract
Don’t use an electric whisk. Use a hand whisk and mix everything together until it looks like a creamy thick batter. You can either use a large loaf pan or a bundt pan that’s been sprayed so the cake doesn’t stick. Bake for 38-45 minutes using no a toothpick to check if it comes out clean. Let it cool completely before serving.
