So good!! If I’m making a 10 inch, 3 layer cake, would you recommend just doubling the recipe?

Hello! I am making this cake for Valentine’s Day this week! I have made my cookie layer and frosting, both great!!
However as my cakes were baking in the oven, the batter spilled out of the sides of the tins! It was so messy and sad. I am totally confused as to why this may have happened. I have checked the recipe over and over and have no idea what went wrong. Any ideas? Thank you!

Thanks!!

In reply to Emmeline Packard. It should work ok, but I haven't tested it so I don't have a recommendation on which things to use exactly. I did write a post for a dairy free, egg free vanilla cake that suggests some products I like for dairy free for that cake that you could try in this one.

Hi there! Is it possible to use dairy free ingredients as well as plant based milks with this recipe? Thanks!

I would just do a regular white chocolate frosting recipe like this one https://cakebycourtney.com/biscoff-cake/

Could you substitute the chocolate for white chocolate in the cream cheese frosting 1:1? I know white chocolate can be less stable than regular chocolate, so just concerned that substituting will make the frosting sloppy.

In reply to Hayley. It can get a little soft with the melted chocolate, especially if it was a little warm when you added it. I would try refrigerating it a bit longer to help set the butter.

I love the idea of this cake, but the frosting was so gloopy. I followed the recipe and I am not new to baking so I am not sure why it is so runny. Even chilling it, it won’t set. Any idea of why this happened?

In reply to Kristen. You'll want about 1/4 of a recipe extra.

I know you say we’ll need extra buttercream for decoration, but does this current amount include the piping to hold up the cookies? Or will we need extra for that?

In reply to claudia. They are thicker layers and you have the cookie layer.

Why is this cake recipe only make 2 -8″ round red velvet cakes when it’s the same recipe as your Red velvet cake with chocolate sour cream frosting and that one makes 3- 8″ cakes?

This was by far in our top 1/2 cake recipes I’ve ever had in my life. It’s even better the next day after!! Oh my gosh! Trust me you must bake this cake. You’re welcome in advance.

Is it normal for this cake to not rise a lot after baking? I made it and haven’t tried it yet, but it looks more dense than any other cake I’ve made.
