SC - Chocolate cake, crisco question, OT-OOP

[Philip & Susan Troy]

Hello!  Crisco is a solid vegetable shortening, available plain or
butter-flavored.  Just so happens I have a can of the butter-flavor handy.
It says:
"Ingredients: partially hydrogenated soybean and cottonseed oils, mono- and
diglycerides, artificial butter flavor, and beta carotene (pro vitamin A)
added for color." Yum.

It also says "How to substitute crisco for butter or margarine in your
favorite recipes:
1 cup crisco plus 6 teaspoons water equals 1 cup butter or margarine."

So, in your recipe, substitute 1/2 cup butter, and reduce the amount of
water used by 3 teaspoons.

HTH,

Cindy
