Iblove cooking. I fucking hate baking. I just don’t get it. How can a cake be burnt on the outside and liquid on the inside when I follow every step of the recipe super accurately
Buy a $10 oven thermometer and check your oven rack positions, sounds like it’s running way hotter than intended. If you have a convection oven the cook time may need to be adjusted.
Same way a steak can be charcoal outside and raw inside: too hot. You need to preheat your oven to the predetermined temp, which is set to a degree that allows the heat to penetrate all the way to the center slowly.

The key is that you’re usually not following the recipe as accurately as you think.
Also, burnt out & liquid in means too hot. Calibrate your oven so you’re actually baking at the temps the recipe calls for!
