I just made this and followed the recipe but found that I could only fill 7 of the baking cups. I had to increase the recipe thus using 3/4 cup vegan margarine, 1.125 peanut butter and graham crumbs, 0.375 stevia natural sweetner I didn't have to increase the chocolate chips & soy milk (I used almond) quantities called for. Anyone else have this issue?
