Answer 1

Don't worry about it at all. It will not make a difference as long as you have two.
It will be fine.

Answer 2

This's happened to me before, and I went along wtih the cake and it turned out fine. But if you really need to add a little more moisture; some oil or even water might do.

Answer 3

A tablespoon of mayo, or a bit more oil... but don't try it if you have less than two eggs cause the cake won't hold together.

Answer 4

2 eggs will work, just add a couple of tablespoons of milk to make up for the moisture in the egg

Answer 5

Add a tablespoon of Mayo.(Mircle Whip) It has egg in it and it will make the cake moist.

Answer 6

To substitute The 3rd egg,yes.Just Add more oil and more water to give it some extra mosture.

Answer 7

Don't worry, the eggs are just the binder, they say three just in case people use small eggs, adding water doesn't add moisture, it evaporates away

Answer 8

That is not what's going to cause the cake to be dry it's part of the rising process. Check out website www.allrecipes.com they usually have helpful hints. there.
