Delicious!!!
Would this work in a Bundt pan?
I’d recommend using a more shallow pan, so the cake bakes properly.
delicious!!
Pan size What’s a 11×17 inch pan?
That is a great question, they seem like they are very rare shape pans. I think you should be able to use a 12×18 inch pan which is slightly bigger which means the cake may be slightly flatter. or you could try a 9×13 but the cake would be much fluffier than intended.
oil Can i substitute oil for the margarine? How much?
I have never tried it with this recipe but you should be able to. 1 and 1/2 sticks of margarine is 1/2 plus 1/4 cup of oil.
