Mixing Tips

For best mixing results, bowl will need to be scraped occasionally throughout the mixing process..

•Always read entire recipe and measure all ingredients before beginning the mixing process..

•For best results, add ingredients into the bowl with the tilt back head locked in the down position..

•For best results, do not measure flour directly from the bag.. Pour into a con- tainer or bowl, scoop out the flour and level with the back of a knife or spatula.. For flour stored in a container, stir before measuring..

•Eggs, butter and cream cheese combine more thoroughly at room temperature..
