For Baking, to double the quantities, try the following: Remove 1/3 of the cooking time. Double the remaining amount. Add your original third back on. So If you’re doubling something that would take 1 hour to bake. You may need to play around with the temperatures to make sure that you’re not burning the outside.
Different shapes and sizes of cake pans will require different baking times, but typically, the minimum amount of baking time will be 40 minutes. After the required baking time, test the cake for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of the cake.
If you are making two cakes and baking your cake in the same size pans as the recipe recommends, the recipe will turn out fine. If you are trying to bake a larger version of your cake, you may need to reduce the amount of baking powder to ensure that your cake rises properly. You would reduce 1/4 tsp for every cup of flour in the recipe.
When you double the batter, you might split it between two pans, or use a much larger pan: either way the cake (s) will take longer to bake than in the original recipe, but probably not twice as long. My suggestion is this: test the cake at the time called for in your recipe. It won’t be done, but check back in 5-minute increments until it is.
