Ive been making cakes for a few weeks now. I use the box cake mix. I butter the pans before i add the batter but when the cake is done, my corners are always burnt. Me personally i like crispy corners but other ppl my not be weird like me and like that... How can i avoid that?

Try lowering the temp and baking a bit longer OR try using bake even strips, since they are wet when you put them on they create moisture in the oven. This could help with the drying out on the corners. HTH

My recipe states to bake at 350, but I bake at 250-275. I also use crisco and flour on my pans before adding the batter, however I dont think this would make any difference at all.

I use cake release. You can find in the recepie section.

Thanks illl really look into these tips.. (there are so many little tips i read about everyday i need to start jotting some down :0)

I felt the same way in the beginning - after you do it so many times if will be like an old habit.
