Oven

Pour cake mix and yogurt into a large glass mixing bowl and stir with a spoon. It may appear that there is too much dry batter to blend with the yogurt but if you continue to stir, it will come together into one uniform dough, little by little. A little more cake mix will stick to the yogurt with each stir. You will likely find pockets of flour each time you stir. Stir and mix until all those pockets of flour are gone. Alternatively, you can probably do this in a stand mixer.
