Hey guys!
I just recently got into baking...something I haven't ever attempted,aside from making some Rice Krispie Treats when I was a teen (andnothing else has ever been attempted until now).
I've just never had a real sweet tooth, and thus never really found anyreason, since I wouldn't normally be interested in eating my owncreation!
But...a year and a half ago, I married a man that LOVES his sweets, andhave recently actually gotten the courage to give it a shot!So, I made a chocolate cake from the box (using a secret addition mysister, the amazing awesome baker, told me about years ago...and it waswonderful!!), and have also attempted muffins and made a batch of RiceKrispie Treats. This was all in the past month.
So, a couple of questions:
I've bought another batch of mix for blueberry muffins, but now I wantto jazz them up by doing that sugary crust you see some muffinshaving. How do I do that for a simple Betty Crocker blueberrymuffin mix? Now, I don't mean a dutch apple pie type ofcrust...I mean simply a sugar crust.
Also, I want to try jazzing up my Rice Krispie Treats, but am not sure how...any ideas??
And yet another thing...I want to be able to make my bunnies littlebunny cookies, or some such, but don't have any recipes forit. Anyone know of one?
And my last question: I bought Betty Crocker sugar cookiemix, but I'm quite picky about the softness of my sugarcookies. How can I be sure they aren't going to be likebricks? Is there a standard color or amount of time, or somekind of indicator that they'll still be soft once they're cooled?
Thanks so much, guys! (And I'm sure my husband thanks you, too!)
