Would someone help w/recipe?

Can i post a friend's recipe for a redo ? IMO it has too much margarine.

[kitchenelf]

Sure - post the ingredients and if it's not a copyrighted recipe post the method. If it is a copyrighted recipe just list some basic instructions on how to make it. Most bakers will be able to tell just from the ingredients, I feel sure.

it doesn't sound like too much to me. However, I would sub butter for margarine, both for taste and health.

It appears from doing an Internet search that 1 stick of butter is normally used. I did see a recipe with 2 sticks of margarine but I'm with Robo here - butter is waaaaay better for us!

[MostlyWater]

we never use butter, too many dairy allergies in the family. if i cut it down to one, will i need extra liquid ?

[MostlyWater]

well?

anyone?

please ?

[kitchenelf]

I would just stick with the margarine then - and when margarine was used it did say 2 sticks.

[GhettoRacingKid]

go with 1 stick.

BTW

does ti come out like a somewhat Choc Chip Cookie? becuase its almost escatly the same recipe exceipe for the fat that is used (margine) is oil based which doesnt have the same properities as butter or shorting which solidify at room temp.


what baotu trying some shortening? you can get butter flavored and i assure you it will taste so much better.
