Secrets To Creating Delicious Baked Goods ARDEN HILLS, Minn. But ter cookies, cakes, pies and tarts are ail traditional baked goods for the holidays. To help create these delicious treats when bak ing, the Land O’Lakes Holiday Bakeline recommends using only real butter in order to maintain a fresh taste and consistent quality among batches. Here are more suggestions the Bakeline experts would like to share for creating delicious baked goods: • Both salted and unsalted butter can be used interchange ably when baking. It’s not neces sary to add salt to the recipe when using unsalted butter. • Butter absorbs odors easily. To ensure that odors do not transfer from the refrigerator to butter, wrap butter in an airtight food bag and store it in a sepa rate compartment in the refriger ator away from odorous foods like garlic. • For cookie baking success, butter must be softened, yet slightly firm. To soften quickly, remove from refrigerator and pound wrapped butter stick sev eral times on each side with a rolling pin. • If butter becomes too soft, dough will be too soft and cook ies will spread. If dough is too soft, refrigerate for about 30 min "If You Canft Find It Herej You Won’tJFindlt!” MISSION STYLE BED N / RECLINER SPECIAL N NARBELED GREEN | I I >■ IHi I msie&f Reg.Ret.s3B9.9s 1 I BSpSi OurPrlceTKMS 1 %M« e i I $ 89 04 1 CLOSEOUT $ 79® 5 j V§~3_ ,y ' WORKING DRAWER \ 3 PC.

To prevent butter from burning, melt at low temperatures and check it fre quently, about every 30 seconds. • Cool cookies and breads completely on wire racks before storing. • Baked cookies may be fro zen up to six months if carefully wrapped and sealed in airtight containers. • Butter and margarine both have 100 calories and 11 grams of fat per tablespoon. Butter is made from pure cream, the source of fat in margarine is veg etable oil. • Light butter can be used as a low-fat substitute for butter. It is best used for topping vegetables or as a table spread. • Cool cookie sheets com pletely between batches to pre vent cookies from spreading too much. • One of the keys to eating right is incorporating a wide va riety of foods in moderation. / 7 PC.
