Sift the cake mix and flour together.

Place a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

Place the cake mix, melted butter, eggs, flour and nuts in a large mixing bowl. Blend with an electric mixer on low speed until well blended 3-4 minutes.

Flour your hands. On a lightly floured surface form two or more loaves. Place them on the parchment paper. Place the pan on the center oven rack.
