Tips, Notes, and Variations

• Substitute some or all of the flour with whole wheat flour.
• To substantially reduce the fat and cholesterol substitute the two eggs with three egg whites.
• Substitute the vanilla extract with ½ teaspoon almond extract or 2 teaspoon orange liquor.
• For a quicker recipe, don’t leave the eggs and butter out; instead, soften the butter in the microwave, and do nothing else with the eggs.
