This was so delicious. We really loved this recipe. I made 1/2 a batch (for 3 of us), and used an 8x12-inch pan, and it worked out just fine. It took maybe 10 minutes less to bake than is indicated in the recipe. The brown sugar mixture was a little too hard though, and I was thinking it might be because that mixture was cooked to a boil. So the next time I make this, I'll just melt the butter and a stir the brown sugar and cinnamon into it, and I hope it will keep it from becoming hard. Despite that, the was super delicious Thank you for posting your recipe, Miss V.
