I'm baking a 1/2 sheet cake from scratch. How do I adjust a recipe to make enough batter? Can I make 1 recipe twice and just put them both in the same pan? I'm making it chocolate cake so if does anyone has a recipe I would appreciate it.

thx

You can definately double a recipe and put it in the same pan. Just make sure that the pan doesn't overflow and that the cake won't rise up over the sides. Maybe just make enough batter to fill 1/2 the pan and then bake two sheets the same size (both filled 1/2 way) if you want height. That way you've already got your two layers.

Thanks. They don't want it filled so I'm good with one layer but you say I can double a recipe?

Yes you can double the recipe to get the amount of batter you need.

you can multiply a recipe as many times as you want, you can triple it, quadruple it, whatever you'd like!! That's why I love cooking so much, you're pretty free to do what you want! It's so much fun!! icon_lol.gif
