For the most delicious, consistent baked goods, here are some tips:
1) Bake by weight. Use a kitchen scale, rather than a volume measurement like measuring cups. This ups the accuracy and gets rid of the mess. The scales are about $20.
2) If you do bake by volume, with measuring cups, be sure to spoon the ingredients into the measuring cup over a piece of wax paper and use the flat side of a butter knife to level off the top. (Don't scoop the cup into the container, because you may pack too much into it.) Then pour the excess left on the wax paper back into the ingredient's container. This prevents too much of the ingredients from getting into your bowl.
3) If using a packaged baking mix, be sure to shake it vigorously before measuring it out to distribute the ingredients evenly. One easy way to do this is to put it in a zip-lock bag to shake it.
