Betty Crocker has a yellow cake recipe that is just great and is my favorite because I am diabetic and can change the suger to a subsitute and it still works out but the only way you can get the recipe is to e-mail Betty Crocker and request it I had it but I lost it. The recipe is called Bonnie Butter Cake. It is an old recipe that is why it is no longer on the web page but they really need to bring it back. Good luck and have fun

Thank you soooo much for adding this recipe!! This is our annual "4th of July cake."  We just moved and my grandmother's classic Betty Crocker cookbook (from the 50's) is lost in the unpacked boxes; we were going to be so upset if we missed out on this tradition!  It is our all-time favorite!!! 

Thank U thank U  I have been looking for tis recipe forever.  It makes a great whatever frosting/filling cake and is so easy to do.  My fave is with pineapple filling and powder sugar icing.  Thanks thanks thanks
