Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.

it doesnt say what size spring form pan
The most commonly used springform pan used in recipes is the 9-inch size so that would probably be your safest bet.

This cake was great! I did scale the recipe to make a 9 x 13 cake. (about 18 servings) It was moist and delicious. I will make it again. Thanks for the recipe.
