metallic ---- this is the only ones I could find
they seem to be for microwave but could be baked in oven @ 350*F untill golden brown and a tooth pick comes out clean. If you try one or both time them for futhure reference. hope this helped you jim b

pumpkin from the can is not very sweet OR have the spices...
A small can is 15oz so you add that to a std cake mix you need to reduce your water or milk. that is like 2 - 3 cakes
It is a guessing game. BE sure to add more sugar..
good luck

I love the cookies you make using a spice cake mix and 1 cup of canned pumpkin! Super easy- also add chocolate chips. I think the site below might have a cake recipe like the one you're experimenting with. If you want the complete cookie recipe, I think it's on www.secrets-of-the-butchers-wife.com
