Butter Margarine

Do you use butter or margarine?

We use butter. Except when I use margarine!

When I am baking there is a distinct difference in what to use!!!!

IF MY RECIPE CALLS FOR BUTTER, USE BUTTER.

IF MY RECIPE CALLS FOR MARGARINE, USE MARGARINE.

Except if you don’t want to. It just won’t be the same. But that’s ok. Make it to your taste. Make it distinctly yours. This is just my opinion. BUT, if your creation isn’t as tasty as mine, that may be why.

I know that butter is more natural, less processed. We like that better. Margarine is a more processed product. Therefore, we steer away from it. HOWEVER, there are a few recipes that I have tried to use butter in and it just does not work. I don’t know why! I would prefer to never use margarine. Off the top of my head I know the Monster Cookies recipe didn’t turn out as well with butter. My cinnamon rolls recipe either. Use margarine in those recipes. But butter is best in the recipes that say butter.

WANT TO KNOW A SECRET OF MINE?

I never use vanilla in my baking. If you look at my recipes, it’s not in them!
