Another chart... If Recipe Calls For: Use Instead:
Fill your cake pans only to the half-way mark. It's always better to have a little extra batter, rather than not enough. Once you've filled the pans half-full, use any remaining batter to bake a few cupcakes. Baking times may undoubtly change, so keep a watchful eye, checking for doneness (a toothpick in the center helps).To figure out an exact capacity, measure the amount of water it takes to fill the pan.
