Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: What size pan do you use?
A: I use a 9×13 pan.
Q: Bake for 50 minutes? I’m assuming they are thicker than a store-bought box mix. That’s twice as long as I bake a box. Just wondering.
A: Yes, they are way thicker, and they came out fine! 😉 The pics are proof, lol. Everyone’s oven may be different. 😍
Q: Can I substitute the brown sugar for another 3/4 cup of white sugar?
A: I would think so! Brown sugar is just white sugar with molasses. 🙂
Q: Could you use self-rising flour instead?
A: I don’t think so, only because there are no rising agents added to these. 🙂
