Answer 3

Your oven temp may be off. Are you putting them on the middle rack? You could always put a bit of foil over the edges .

Answer 4

sounds like you are slightly overcooking them. Your oven may cook at a little hotter than the temp. gage says. Remember that when you take them out of the oven, they are still in a hot pan and will continue to cook for a few minutes. But sometimes it happens, and what I do is carefully pare the hardest bits with a knife before I frost the cake...by the way, those hot hard bits you just pared off are good with some butter or frosting while they are still hot!
