Ingredients
Cake Batter
- 1 box (15.25 ounces / 432 grams) strawberry cake mix
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) water
- ½ cup (113 grams / 4 ounces) vegetable oil
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven according to the temperature specified on the strawberry cake mix package, usually around 350°F (175°C).
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the strawberry cake mix, eggs, water, and vegetable oil. Use a hand mixer or whisk to blend until the batter is smooth and well combined.
- Prepare Pan: Grease a 9×13 inch baking pan lightly with butter or non-stick spray to ensure the cake doesn’t stick.

- Cool and Serve: Allow the cake to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your homemade Strawberry Earthquake Cake!

- You can frost this cake with cream cheese frosting or whipped cream for added indulgence.
