Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool before slicing.

Recipe Note

This cake uses sour milk that would otherwise be thrown out. You'd never know it, though! It's moist, delicious, and easy to make.
