If I can’t make it with real butter INSTEAD of Crisco I would never make it. Real butter “snob” here!

My husband’s family is crazy about a red-velvet cake recipe, wherein they use Crisco for the icing. Personally, I’d like to slip in some butter instead (as well as try other things, without letting my stubborn “snobby” husband know, never mind my MIL).

What are slithered almonds? Put them in snake’s cage for awhile? instead of roasting them?

Slithered almonds are produced by the House of Slytherin.
