Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s get started! First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, I combine the chocolate cake mix, eggs, water, and vegetable oil. Using my electric mixer, I beat the mixture for about 2 minutes until it’s smooth and well-blended. The aroma of chocolate fills my kitchen, and I can’t help but get excited! Once the batter is smooth, pour it into the greased 9×13 inch baking dish and bake according to the package instructions, usually about 30-35 minutes. Let it cool for a bit once it’s out of the oven before we poke it. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
