Tip:

Creaming butter or margarine: For best results,

remove butter or margarine from refrigerator

and set aside while assembling other

ingredients. This will allow butter or margarine

to soften slightly before use and will make the

creamed product creamier. Do not use frozen

butter or margarine.
