Step-by-Step Instructions
To get started on this delicious treat, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your 9×13 inch baking pan. Prepare the cake mix according to the package instructions, pouring it into the prepared pan once it’s mixed. Then, bake for about 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. This part fills my kitchen with the most wonderful aromas that are hard to resist! Once baked, let the cake cool for about 10 minutes. Before it cools completely, use a toothpick or skewer to poke holes all over the top of the cake—don’t be shy; those holes are what will soak up that indulgent chocolate mixture!
