Half a box ain't gonna cut it. Today's box mixes are so downsized that
it's an insult to cakes. Mix up the entire box and fill up whatever pan
you want to use at least half full, more is better. Make cupcakes with
any leftovers or give it to your cats. I have to use my mouth and a
pencil to type too. Thank God for spellcheck!
