Cake
My sister gave me a new baking dish for Christmas, so I made a cake. I told Aaron it's counting as his birthday cake since I will be in the field the second week of February. It was great, except for one thing.
When I used a toothpick to see if the cake was done baking, it deflated in the center. Being the innovative one I am, I used a large amount of icing to cover the dent.
Does anyone know how to prevent this from happening? Though I must say using a large amount of icing wasn't a bad fix...

Sarah, I forgot to tell you not to use any Aerosol sprays such as Pam in your pan because it will might discolor the pan. Use butter, flour, or parchment paper instead. I am not sure why your cake had a bubble in it. I made a cheesecake with mine and it was perfect. I am glad you are using it. Dad loves his gift.

Becks,
I used butter and flour. It tasted great, it just dipped in the center. Maybe I should just use half the batter.

Taste is the most important thing; looks are secondary. But I will research for you to see why. Acts such as opening oven door & yelling or stomping on floor so it shakes will also cause some cakes to fall. The pics really made my mouth water!

How did you know I was yelling and stomping? The cake tasted great and this is what matters. I'll have to try again soon.
