INFO & TIPS
I normally double the load as I make big
round
chocolate cakes and big square cakes, so
you can
estimate how much of the mix you need -
single or
double load. But if you double, then
obviously has to stay in the oven for a
longer baking time. Also used for
cupcakes. You wont want to use another
chocolate cake recipe after this.
