Adjusting cooking time help needed

    Hi guys,

    I'm making this cake for a friend: http://titlisbusykitchen.com/archives/banoffee-cake


    The recipe says I should split the mixture into two separate 8" tins and cook at 170 degrees for 30-40 minutes.

    But instead of 8" tins, I'm using one 9 and 1/2 " tin, and cutting it in half once it's cool.

    Any ideas how I should change the temperature/cooking time for this?

    Thank you!

    I would say add another 10-15 minutes and then insert a metal skewer into the cake, if it comes out clean it's done, if it doesn't give it another 10 minutes or so

    I'd drop the temperature to 160 (without fans, if you have the option to turn them off on your oven) and give it an hour at least. At the hour mark, I'd start checking it every 10 minutes.

    Is your tin very deep? Because if it's not, your mixture probably won't fit in a single tin.
