Can’t wait to try this, Grand-babies are going to love it. My question is, what am I doing with the 1 TBS of butter that is being kept separate?
Allyson says
Do you mean the TBS of sugar? As seen in step #4: Grease a 9-inch square baking pan (or something similar) with butter or coat with non-stick spray. Spread batter into pan. Sprinkle batter with remaining tablespoon of sugar.
