1 1/4 Cup Warm water 2 Tbsp. Butter or margarine (not Lite margarine) 1 Cup Yellow cake mix 2 1/2 Cups Flour 2 tsp. Dry yeast Method: Try using different cake mixes for different flavors. This makes a light uniform loaf of bread. Cycle: White and timer. I make the dough in my bread machine, pat it out and add raisins and frozen miniature marshmallows. Roll it up jelly-roll fashion - press it together well and bake in my long Wilton loaf pan. I have baked this in a 2lb coffee can but if you're not careful the marshmallows will melt and drip down the sides of the can so be sure to place an old pan underneath to catch the drips. (I have gotten busy and had it push a plate off the top of the can as it rises). The melted marshmallows leave pockets of sweetness (tried sugar cubes but they make your teeth fall out it's so sweet and some do not always melt). Once, I made this bread and had some leftover cinnamon and nut sprinkle which I added to the center before I rolled it up. I used too many raisins (1 cup) and the weight made the loaf inside the crust fall on one side - the top bread crust was beautiful. I would add not much more than 1/2 cup raisins (1 cup is too much!). (I also added 2 tbsp. dried potato flakes).
