Prep Time15 minutes
Cook Time30 minutes
Total Time45 minutes
Servings: 12 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 box yellow cake mix 15.25 ounce
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup water
  • ½ cup vegetable or canola oil
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt 2% preferred, can substitute with sour cream
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk 14 ounce
  • 1 container whipped topping 8 ounce, thawed

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the yellow cake mix, eggs, water, vegetable oil, Greek yogurt, 2 teaspoons of cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, beat the mixture on medium speed until smooth and well combined, about 2 minutes.
  • Pour the cake batter into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
  • After the cake has cooled slightly, use a toothpick or skewer to poke holes all over the surface of the cake.
  • Pour the entire can of sweetened condensed milk over the poked cake, making sure to cover the entire surface.
  • Cover the cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight if you have the time.
  • Once the cake has chilled, remove it from the refrigerator. Spread the thawed whipped topping evenly over the cake.
  • Slice the cake into squares and serve. Enjoy the delightful flavors of snickerdoodles in every bite!

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Electric Mixer
  • 9x13 inch Baking Pan
  • Toothpick or skewer

Notes

  • Let the cake cool before adding the sweetened condensed milk to avoid melting the topping.
  • For richer flavor, use vanilla bean paste instead of extract.
  • Store the cake in the refrigerator due to the whipped topping and condensed milk.
