- Mix all cake mix ingredients in a stand mixer or using a hand mixer beat for 2 minutes.
- Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan and spread out evenly. Sprinkle on the swirl mixture until it coats the entire layer.
- Pour on the rest of the batter and using a butter knife or spreader, spread that layer all over until it covers edge to edge. It will all spread. Trust the process.
