Why do you choose to print recipes which do not indicate the correct size baking pan to use? Since there are so many sizes available, is one just to guess? And why can’t you proofread the recipe and see that it simply says “pour into a pan and bake”? Anyone who cares about baking would never print a recipe like this, and there are many on this web site which omit the size baking pan.
