The holiday baking season has begun, and the big debate of "butter or spread" has probably come up in your kitchen adventures. I was recently challenged by the folks at Unilever to give one of their soft spreads a try as a substitute for butter in a recipe. To be honest, I already really liked Country Crock and Brummel and Brown as a topper for toast and potatoes, so it wasn't a big deal for me to give it a try.
My daughter and I whipped up some tasty treats for our homeschool holiday party. While she worked on a batch of chocolate-dipped pretzels, I swapped the butter in my red sprinkle rice cereal treats for Country Crock; the results were delicious!
While I chose to swap with my favorite rice cereal treats recipe, there are dozens of ways you can use soft spreads in a recipe and come out with tasty results. Some you might enjoy include:
· One Bowl Chocolate Chip Cookies · Anytime Sugar Cookies · Chocolate Crinkles · Best Ever Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies
