Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s start with the fun part! First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). While that’s heating up, grab a mixing bowl and combine the yellow cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and eggs. I like to use an electric mixer for this because it makes things so much easier, but a whisk works just fine too if you’re feeling a bit more traditional. Mix until everything is well combined and reaches a nice smooth consistency. You can already smell the sweet aroma filling your kitchen! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
