Cracking Cake

You just made a lovely cake and it is happily baking in the oven. When the time is up, you open the door to check on it, and what do you see? A huge hump with cracks in it. What happened?

Humps and cracking is usually caused by your oven being too hot. You should have your oven temperature checked. If it checks out fine, then just lower your oven temperature by about 25º the next time that you make the recipe.
