FAQ
1. Can I use a different flavor cake mix?
Yes! While chocolate is traditional, you can use vanilla, red velvet, or even peanut butter cake mix for a unique twist.

2. How do I know when the cake is done?
The edges should be set, and the center should still be slightly jiggly. Overbaking will result in a less gooey texture.

3. Can I make this cake ahead of time?
Absolutely! This cake tastes great the next day. Simply reheat slices in the microwave for a freshly baked effect.
