Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Oven and hot trays. Use dry oven gloves for trays and dishes: a hot tray looks just like a cold one. Open the oven door away from your face and let the first rush of heat out.

  1. 1% cubes butter 14 cup sugar 1 teaspoon baking powder 4 cup mixed sweet cordials (for instance, sweet marsala, sweet vermouth, frangelico) 22 cups flour Melt the butter.
  2. In a large bowl, add the melted butter and sugar and beat at medium speed for 5 minutes or until the texture is creamy.

  5. The mixture should be a little sticky.
