I've made them twice and thought that the layers were perfect in their thickness, but maybe that's just me.

Aww, don't feel silly. We've all been there.
CC is so full of information it's kind of overwhelming. It's fun to play around and see what all is on there. Now that you know the recipes are there, you'll be able to search things easily. It also comes in handy when you need to e-mail your host the recipe ingredients.

I didn't double it at all. The trick is to do it quick before the spread sets up and what I did was scoop little amounts on it and spread that and scoop some more and spread. It's harder to get it to cover if you put it all on and try to spread that out.
It does make a thin layer though, so don't try to make it very thick.
I loved making these and would do it again in an instant, they were so yummy and easy!
