Removable Bottoms

Did you know that there's such a thing as a tube pan with a removable bottom? I did not, until tonight. I made a delicious, decadent chocolate velvet cake batter, grabbed a tube pan from Michael's cupboard, and stuck it in the oven. A few minutes later, I was met with a curious burning smell. About a half cup of the batter had already leaked out the bottom and was turning into a molten, smoldering mess on the bottom of the oven.














And here's Michael, cleaning up my dumb mess. What a stud!

P.S. We are attempting to rescue the remaining cake batter, now placed in a sturdy, trustworthy bundt pan. Don't know how it'll turn out, given it cooked for five minutes, cooled off, and is now being baked again, but I'll keep my fingers crossed.
