I only have an 8x8 or a 9” round
What do you recommend? Cooking a bit longer in 8x8 or in a 9 round? Also have a 9x13.

The former two sizes are about the same volume, you would just scale down the recipe by 25%. For the latter you'd scale up the recipe +50%. This is a great example of the utter wretchedness of Imperial volumetric measurements and the superiority of mass-based metric measurements.
Otherwise, I'd do as Nicole suggests and bake off the extra batter in muffins or a suitably sized smaller mold. A muffin-size portion would be perfect for a brown bag meal or as a very presentable gift.
Best of luck.
The 9x9 the recipe calls for is 81 square inches.
Your 8x8 is 64 square inches and a 9x13 is 117 sq. in.
So there's no easy transfer. I would suggest going with the 8x8 you have, and baking the excess batter in cupcake molds or something similarly small.
I am curious what everyone else on the hotline thinks!
