It's not my thing, and I'm OK with that. <br><br>By the way, we DO use our Pampered chef stoneware for cake and it works. Mine is very "seasoned" though...meaning it's pretty brown and very smooth. Yours may be too new to do it. I never grease mine either. <br><br>Hugs, <br><br>SusanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5677710833471810728.post-67055023936280344342008-01-24T20:42:00.000-05:002008-01-24T20:42:00.000-05:00Oh sweetie.Try this recipe: http://becksrecipes.bl...Oh sweetie.<br>Try this recipe: http://becksrecipes.blogspot.com/2007/11/cockeyed-cake.html<br>You make it RIGHT in an 8" square cake pan.
