Never go by the time specified in a recipe for baking--there are too many variables that can alter your optimal baking time: your oven temp, how far apart you place the cakes, etc.
Bake them until they are done. That sounds simplistic, but if they aren't set in the centers when you check them, bake them for longer. If the tops of your cakes are getting a little dark, cover them loosely with foil--just lay a piece on top, don't try to crimp it or fold it over the edges of the pan. |
