Figuring 3 times the ingredients called for, I used TWO 9" X 13" pans, instead of THREE 9" X 9" pans. They sunk on me, and I did not open the oven. I set the timer for the maximum time on the recipe, and figured I could look in at that time, and extend the time. Then I could use a cake tester. IT FAILED! Could the problem be that I didn't increase the temperature? Could it be that the aluminum pans expanded, whereas a regular square pan would not do that? I was in the other room and I heard a sound, like a pan expanding and nobody opened the oven!
