if you spray box grater with nonstick spray it’s easier to get grated butter out too!….also nonstick spray in a measuring cup and honey just falls out!
This is top tier advice! Thank you!!
Yes! Spray oil in a measuring cup or spoon and honey, corn syrup, molasses, even peanut butter all slide out with zero residue.
The honey trick is going to be my number 1 favorite!!
I don’t understand how to remove the honey from the flour.
You don’t 😅 that’s a hack for recipes that call for honey, corn syrup,molasses etc@757IsMyHomebase
Most of these tips I already use all the time. But the mini pies in the canning lids?🤯 BRILLIANT!!!!!
Whacking the butter with a rolling pin is the exact kind of kitchen aggression I can get behind.❤
Great ideas
Thank you 😊
I’ve been baking for years.
Never thought of rolling out my dough then chill.🙄duh
Makes tons of sense.
Thank you!
I dip my cookie cutters in powered sugar 😋
Thank you I will use that instead of flour ❤
I went way too many years not knowing the joys of parchment paper. Dollar tree even has precut sheets.
The dollar tree parchment paper cannot take the higher temperatures like a name brand will. I found out the hard way. My dollar tree has precut squares of parchment paper, also. I think there are 50 in a pack. Thank you, Nicole!
Instead of rolling cookies out on flour, use icing sugar instead. It makes a sweeter, crispier bottom and the cookies don’t get tough if you reroll the dough several times.
I’ll keep that in mind. Thank you 😊❤
Those mini pies look amazing!
AWESOME!
Thanks for the ideas
Thanks Nicole and crew for your video.
Bless you
thanks for all the hacks!!!
Thanks. Wonderful tips!!!
The mini Pies in Jar lids is next level baking. I’m putting foil on the bottom because I’m sure that plastic coating is not designed for baking. Still an epic hack I’ll use.
Yeah, I was wondering about that too.
Oh yes thank you
Great ones
Great show
