Step-by-Step Instructions
First things first, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). While that’s heating up, I start by preparing the chocolate cake mix according to the package instructions. It’s usually a simple mix of the dry cake mix, eggs, oil, and water, and I like to use a hand whisk to really incorporate all the ingredients together. Once I’ve got a nice and smooth batter, I pour it into my greased 9×13-inch baking pan and pop it into the oven. An irresistible chocolate aroma will soon fill my kitchen!
