Step-by-Step Instructions
To start off, I preheat my oven to 350°F (175°C). I then prepare my 9×13 inch baking pan by greasing it lightly. Following the directions on the box, I mix up the vanilla cake batter and pour it into the prepared pan. The smell that fills my kitchen as it bakes is nothing short of heavenly! Once baked for about 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean, I let it cool completely in the pan. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
