RECIPES

Mixing Tips
• Always read entire recipe and
measure all ingredients before
beginning the mixing process.
• For best results, do not measure flour
directly from the bag. Pour into a
container or bowl, scoop out the
flour and level with the back of a
knife or spatula. For flour stored in a
container, stir before measuring.
• Eggs, butter or cream cheese
combine more thoroughly at room
temperature.
• Remove butter from refrigerator first
and cut into 1.5cm pieces, then
measure out remaining ingredients for
recipe. This will hasten the softening
process. Do not warm butter for
baking in a microwave unless
instructed to do so. Microwaving can
melt butter; melted butter will change
the final product.
• The best cheesecakes are made
when the eggs and cream cheese
