Instructions
1. Open the box of parchment paper, using caution not to cut yourself on the sharp blade. Unroll the parchment paper until you have a sheet that is just larger than your cake pan.
2. Crease the paper over the blade and firmly, but gently tear the paper. Use scissors to cut the parchment paper if you have difficulties using the box blade.
3. Lay the sheet of paper down on a flat surface. Place the baking sheet on top of the parchment paper. Trace around the baking sheet with a pencil or pen. Cut out the pan tracing.
4. Place the baking paper in the sheet cake pan. Crease the edges at the corners. Let the edges go partially up the side of the cake pan to keep any batter from slipping under the paper.
5. Prepare the cake batter. Pour the prepared batter into the pan, on top of the parchment paper. Put the cake in the oven and bake according to the recipe recommendations.
6. Take the cake from the oven. Place a wire cooling rack over the top of the cake pan. Using hot pads, hold the cooling rack in place over the cake pan, and flip the cake pan over so that the cake is upside down on the cooling rack.
7. Remove the cake pan from the cake. Carefully peel back the parchment paper from the cake bottom. Let the cake cool completely.
