Semi Homemade Sour Cream Caramel Cake
































Isaiah 37:15-20


[15] And Hezekiah prayed to the LORD: [16] “O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, enthroned above the cherubim, you are the God, you alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth; you have made heaven and earth. [17] Incline your ear, O LORD, and hear; open your eyes, O LORD, and see; and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which he has sent to mock the living God. [18] Truly, O LORD, the kings of Assyria have laid waste all the nations and their lands, [19] and have cast their gods into the fire. For they were no gods, but the work of men’s hands, wood and stone. Therefore they were destroyed. [20] So now, O LORD our God, save us from his hand, that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you alone are the LORD.”



1 Butter Golden Cake Mix

8 oz. sour cream tub

1/3 c light olive oil

1/4 c sugar

1/4 c water

4 eggs

1 t vanilla 


Caramel Icing


1-1/2 c white sugar

1/2 c butter

1/4 c plus 1/8 c evaporated milk


An extra 1/2 c white sugar for browning


For baking Cake 

Preheat the oven to 350º F. 

Grease 13x9 pan with non stick.

In a large bowl, mix the cake mix, sour cream, oil, sugar, water and eggs together on low with an electric hand mixer until incorporated. 

Turn to medium speed and beat for two minutes.

Pour mixture evenly into pan, tap on counter to release any bubbles.

Bake for 40-45 minutes. 

Cool completely and frost.


Caramel Icing


Combine sugar, evaporated milk, and butter in a large, heavy saucepan. 

Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.


Meanwhile, brown 1/2 cup sugar in a small, heavy skillet. I use a non-stick skillet. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until sugar melts and the syrup is light, golden brown, about 3 minutes.


Add the sugar syrup to the milk mixture, stirring constantly.

When the mixture reaches the soft ball stage (230º on a candy thermometer), remove from the heat. 

Beat with an electric hand mixer until the mixture reaches spreading consistency 10 minutes.


Spread quickly over the cooled cake layers.
