RECIPES

Mixing Tips

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

For best results, do not measure flour directly from the bag. Pour into a container 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 or cream cheese combine more thoroughly at room temperature.

Remove butter from refrigerator first and cut into 12-inch pieces, then measure out remaining ingredients for recipe. This will hasten the softening process. Do not warm butter for baking in a microwave unless instructed to do so. Microwaving can melt butter; melted butter will change the final product.

The best cheesecakes are made when the eggs and cream cheese are a similar room temperature. While the Cuisinart® PowerSelecthand mixer can easily mix cold cream cheese, the trick is not to add too much air, which can cause cracking.
