1 box Devil’s Food cake mix with pudding
2 large eggs

Spray 9 x 13 cake pan with vegetable oil. Combine all ingredients in large mixing bowl. Blend with electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat 2 minutes more.  Pour into prepared pan,  bake at 350 for 30 - 35 minutes. Remove pan from oven and place on wire rack while preparing glaze.
