I see hits online for making brownies more cake-like, but I want to do the opposite. I have a box of Devil's Food chocolate cake mix in my pantry. I don't want it to be fluffy and airy, I want it to have a fudgy, brownie-like consistency. I am going to use it as a base in small individual...

I have a set of THESE, Pioneer Woman cake pans. They are very sturdy, deep & strong! I got so tired on those puny thin cake pans that look so flimsy & small!! These new ones are 9 inches wide & about 3 inches deep. Where what used to total 3 dinky cake pans to make a tall cake, you'd now only...
