I got a large choc. Chunk cake mex from Duncan Hines and can I substitute Guinness beer for the water for st Patrick’s Day.

It should be 18.5 the packet should be separate.

Sure why not?

According to Duncan Hines - no. One box of mix will cook properly in a 10x2 pan assuming it is the same height as your regular cake pans. Here is some conversion info that I copied from one of their mix boxes: 1 box of mix yields 5 1/2 cups of batter. 5 1/2 cups can be cooked in a 10x2 pan and should take about 40 - 50 minutes. You can make 2 cakes and stack them for a big cake but all that batter in one pan probably won't cook right. Two boxes of mix need a 15 x 2 round pan or an 11 x 15 x 2 rectangle pan. I hope that helps!

It's possible that it's out of date and lost its leavening 'power'. Check the box directions to make sure your mix can be used for cupcakes. Also, not adding enough liquid might be the problem.

This ball is referred to as a widget. Guinness contains less CO2 than other beers. The purpose of the widget is to release the CO2 from the beer in the can to produce head. The widget is added to the can prior to sealing. View the site below for more details.
