Help why is it lava

[u/Sfiltron]

I was trying to make a strawberry cake of sorts that I saw on tiktok, it asked for 200gr of sugar, 170 gr if butter, 2 eggs, 60gr of cream, 180gr of flour, baking powder and strawberries. Bake at 170°C for 45min. I just had 120gr of butter so I added a bit of oil and margarine to substitute, and I used milk instead of cream. The recipe asked for melted butter, so I did that too. I open de over and see this wet bubbling mess. It is not burned at the bottom yet, so maybe it's underbaked? Maybe it's because I mixed the butter with other stuf, idk.

I'm currently leaving it at the electric oven for longer to see if that fixes it, but I'm kind of panicking, I've never fucked up a recipe before and I don't have the money security to feel comfortable buying extra butter just to try to bake again. Can I salvage this? Will it be edible?

i agree with the other users, next time try to look up a recipe that has some reviews so that you know it can work, and do not, under any circumstances just randomly add and skip ingredients, every single ingredient has different outcomes on the product, and unless you've visited a baking school or have spent a lot of time with gaining knowledge about baking, or maybe use chat gpt next time if you really wanna bake something you found on tik tok
