Notes
Don't overbake! Bake until the edges begin to brown, the center will still be soft.
This recipe uses a 9x9 steel baking pan. If your baking pan is glass or ceramic, it will likely need additional bake time as these take longer to heat up.
These are delicious served with ice cream, whipped cream, vanilla icing, or sprinkles for a special treat.
