Description

A delightful combination of sweet, savory, and spicy flavors, this cake brings a unique twist to dessert with its crunchy pretzel topping and moist cake base.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups pretzels (stick or twist)
  • 1 box vanilla or yellow cake mix
  • 1 packet ranch seasoning
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup sour cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch pan.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine cake mix, ranch seasoning, eggs, melted butter, and sour cream. Mix until smooth.
  3. Gently fold in half of the pretzels, breaking into smaller pieces.
  4. Pour the batter into the greased pan and sprinkle remaining pretzel pieces on top.
  5. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool before serving.

Notes

For a gluten-free option, substitute gluten-free cake mix. Greek yogurt can be used instead of sour cream. Avoid overbaking for best results.
