Quester, you could try using foil to cut the pan in half, making a foil pan inside the pan and making sure the foil only was quadruple or quintuple strength.
It's a real burden being right so often.

quester, I'm afraid the only possible solution is to buy more brownie mix.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Smoking definitely makes it worse. I had planned to quit while Kristen was in Toronto...but then the car thing happened and I cried a lot. I couldn't have one more stressor.

If you need more brownies you could try adding more sugar, flour and oil, but getting the proportions right would be tricky.

I think I'll try Sue's suggestion. I'm not dressed to leave the house anymore.

I get that, believe me. I'm going to need to reach total zen before I can quit, which makes it fairly unlikely.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Quester, the mix WILL fit -- you just have to "mold" it, kind of, and just shove it around to make it fit. It's a very very VERY thick batter. More like dough than batter.
t edit I've made the Betty Crocker GF brownies about 6 or 7 times now, so I can tell you it really does fit in a 9 x 13 pan. It just seems weird because the batter isn't like the batter you're used to.

Well, I spread it all out and lowered the heat a tad and reduced the time. I'll keep an eye on it and hope I don't burn it. At worst it will be a brownie/cookie/bar thing. I have dark chocolate icing to spread on it.
I just realized after I put it in the oven that I didn't "grease the bottom" of the pan. It's non-stick so I hope it will be ok.
Thanks for the advice, Steph!
