I suspect that most here own a Kitchen Aid Stand mixer..well, a few months ago, I had a coupon from BB&B..so I bought the Kitchen Aid flex edge beater and it is just awesome...Amazing what that flexible edge can do...you hardly ever have to scrape down the bowl, and creaming butter, as one example, is a joy..They should, IMHO< make it standard issue with all their mixers..
Shop around before you buy.. you should be able to get one for about $20-25..
You'll thank me..
Try these spinach squares It's similar, but a heck of lot easier...and great when you need to make lots for a party
Thanks that sounds great. My daughter fixed something similar once, but lost the recipe. It was really good, so I’ll be keeping this for a winter day. I do most of my baking in the winter.
I will eat puff pastry plain! Once my husband saw a TV chef make it, and wanted to try himself. It’s a lot of time and work, and we didn’t do it again; but it turned out pretty good, and I had pastry for months of these:
