So, feeling a little stressed out, or frustrated? Simply slip on those mittens and bake a fresh batch of cup cakes.

1. Baileys is a baked good's best friend: When making brownies from a mix, use Baileys instead of water.
2. Mayonnaise too: To make your cake super moist, simply add mayonnaise (which is a blend of eggs and oil) to the mix.
3. Espresso and vanilla are key: When making chocolate cake, add espresso and vanilla to the cake mix as espresso brings out the darker elements in chocolate and vanilla enhances basically every flavor.
4. Use cake-mix to make cookies: For even tastier cookies, use ready-made cake mixes.
5. Unsweetened baking chocolate: If you don't have unsweetened baking chocolate, you can substitute using cocoa powder and oil or butter.

6. It's all about the weight: Measure by weight instead of cups as it is more accurate this way.
7. Moisten cake with pudding mix: To give cake a truly moist and tasty feel, add instant pudding mix to cake mix.
