Notes
We liked these healthier cake mixes:
King Arthur Flour Deliciously Simple Chocolate, Pillsbury Moist Supreme Classic Yellow, and Pillsbury Moist Classic White
For Petit Four, pour the cake into a 10×15-inch cake pan. Bake 19-23 minutes. Frost with this frosting recipe, substituting honey for half of the corn syrup.
