Hi. I always wonder when the recipe, like this one, asks for butter, does it make a difference if I use margarine? (except for shortbread type of recipes) Thanks!
danielle says
never margarine-always butter 🙂

When I was a child, my favorite cake was an orange cake with orange frosting made by a local bakery. For some reason, they put a string around the cake when they boxed it (I mean literally around the cake), and when it was taken off, apparently a small piece of string somehow stayed on and my sister got a bite of it and to this day refuses to eat any type of orange cake – so may be these brownies will change her mind. I cannot wait to try them out!
