A
couple of weeks ago, I tried to make poundcake muffins. I just halved MD's recipe.They had major sinkholes and tasted like cornbread.
I used "I can't believe it's not butter!" even though the recipe called for butter.
I did it for my health, you know?
Anyway, I've been craving some of my from scratch brownies. I decided to use the rest of the
Ummm, now I know what cause the poundcake to sink like that.I haven't yet tasted the brownies. They're normally good even if I take them out too early. I left them in 5 minutes longer today.
*sigh*
I don't even know if I want to waste the time it takes to make the icing if they EFFING SUCK like I am anticipating.
And I only have one egg left. Not enough to make a new batch.
I hate this.
If worse comes to worst, I will fill the sinkholes with Marshmallow Creme (I got it for "The Boy").
*cries*

**Update** - They taste good. No mallow creme or icing needed. They're just extra crispy. Like a cookie. So I suppose I'm thankful that they don't taste like chocolate cornbread...

Don't cry - doesn't marshmallow creme make everything better? I think I know now to stay away from 'I Can't Believe It's Not Butter' - thank you for saving me! (and the rare baking I do!)
ReplyDeleteThankfully the flavor is ok. It's just the crispy texture that I'll have to get past.
ReplyDeleteNo crying. Just a lot of sighing, LOL.
I think that's why they call it "ICBI NOT butter." LOL
ReplyDeleteBravo for caring about being healthy, though. I'm glad they were still edible. :)
Health tip: Butter is healthier for you than margarine.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!
ICBINB is only good for spreadiing -- too much water in it for baking without sinkholes! But crispy taste with no cornbread tones is NOT bad.
ReplyDeleteI've never tried that butter, but only have butter a couple times a year so I just buy butter. I'm glad I saw this post. Not buying this ever. Have a great day. :)
ReplyDeleteMrs Forz - They're so good, LOL.
ReplyDeleteCarol - I know. But I like the taste of margarine better unless I'm searing a steak.
Elle - I won't be buying it again.
Sandee - Don't!
