Baking Cakes in Canning Jars

By Carroll Pellegrinelli, About.com Guide

Use a 1/4 cup scoop to add the batter to the jar. Any batter that sticks to the side, wipe out. Fill the jars just under the 1-cup mark.

Set your timer for 15 minutes less that the time stated in your recipe. I used a bamboo skewer to test for doneness. Bake longer, if necessary.
