Hi Thiepa! Hmm, I’m not totally sure, I’ve never measured it. Based off of this site (http://www.joyofbaking.com/PanSizes.html) it says that a 6″ pan is 4 cups of batter so this recipe would make 12 cups. I worry that halving the recipe would not be enough but a full recipe would be too much. You could do 2/3 the recipe (just change the Servings to 8 to get the amounts) and make cupcakes with any extra batter. Or do the full recipe and make cupcakes with the extra. I hope that helps! Let me know how it turns out.

Hi Olivia – first off THANK YOU for these amazing recipes! I stumbled upon your site during the pandemic, and your Reader Favourite Chocolate Cake is now a loved staple in my home, and your site is my go-to! I’m looking to make this golden oreo cake recipe for my son’s birthday using my mom’s old Wilton Stand-up Cuddly Bear pan, which apparently requires 6 and 2/3 cups of batter! Trying to figure out how much of your recipe to make – do you happen to know off-hand roughly how many cups of batter you get from your 1x cake recipe?

Thanks so much,
Thiepa

In reply to Declan. Hi Declan! The metric conversions are calculated automatically and I do not verify them. I did however take a look and see no issue. Can you elaborate on what you think is incorrect and why?

I think the metric conversions are very incorrect

In reply to Alessandra Simonetta. Hi Alessandra! I am so happy you loved this frosting as much as I do. You can do that with any cookie powder, it's soooo good!

This review is JUST for the frosting as I used it to frost a different cake recipe – HOLY COW THIS FROSTING WAS DIVINE. I’ve made a few swiss merengue buttercreams but never added cookie powder to it and good Lord. It tasted like the pure essence of a Golden Oreo, but ENHANCED. I was worried perhaps the addition of cookie powder would make the frosting taste gritty. It did not, and it was the KEY to the flavor of this frosting.

So so so so good, everyone raved about it, highly recommend!

In reply to Lindsey. Hi Lindsey! Your comment totally made my day! I am so happy you found this recipe, loved it, and tried a new frosting! SMBC is a bit of work (to say the least) but it's SO delicious it is totally worth it. Golden Oreos are truly the superior Oreo too ;)

I asked my husband what kind of birthday cake he wanted, and he said “Cookies and cream. WAIT. No. Yellow oreo cookies and cream!!” So thank you, first of all, for already having such an incredible recipe for an idea I was sure my husband invented just to make my life difficult lol! After tasting how ridiculously delicious this cake was, I have no idea why this isn’t an option in every bakery everywhere. We probably would have chosen this as our wedding cake flavor if it had been available. The cake is moist, delicious, and so unique in flavor. And the frosting!! I had never made frosting with egg whites before, and halfway through the process I was thinking it was so not worth it. Spoiler: It was sooooooo worth it. I hate icing but love this!! This is seriously the best recipe I’ve tried in a long, long time. Thank you for making my husband so happy on his birthday! I think he will request this every year for the rest of his life.
