Sweet Secret You don’t want to lose even a drop of this divine batter, so measure the volume of your fluted tube cake pan using water to make sure it holds 12 cups. If the pan is smaller than 12 cups, the batter will overflow during baking.

Sweet Secret For a milder chocolate flavor, use milk chocolate chips instead of semisweet.
