- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan and set aside.
- In a large bowl, mix together the cake mix, eggs, water, and oil until well combined. Spread the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
