I want to bake some cookies, looking at this recipe:
http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/5849/amy-s-chocolate-chip-cookies.aspx
I have all the ingredients except the soft brown sugar, but I do have golden caster sugar. Can I use the golden caster sugar instead or does anybody have a cookie recipe without brown sugar?

I know you can either use self raising flour or baking powder but I can never seem to get cakes to rise to a decent height.
I’m just planning on making a basic cake with self raising flour, caster sugar, margarine, eggs and milk and I don’t have a normal cake tin, I just have a loaf tin but I don’t know if the cake with rise as high as the tin, is there any way of making it rise fully?
Thanks.

Hii i need your help!

How do i make a 7inch victoria spnge cake?
It sounds dumb but i think im using too much of the ingrediants.
Also include what gas-mark to set the oven on and how long to cook for.
And is it okay to use normal sugar(like the one you put in cups of tea/coffee)as i have no caster sugar right now.
Thanks for your help!
Also include how much of each ingrediant i need!
Thanks

I’m making fairy cakes. Got all the ingredients but I haven’t got weighing scales or the measuring cup. I’m stuck with tablespoons. I’ve read online that 8 tablespoons of caster sugar, flour and butter would be a perfect measurement. Is this right? PLEASE HELP.

I accidentally picked up caster sugar instead of normal sugar not knowing which one was which. Is it okay to use for cups of teas?

I have got a full packet of icing sugar which I hardly use. I reckon it can be used to bake cakes instead of caster sugar. But I don’t know how much less amount I should use to achieve the same sweetness and result. Can anyone give me advice in percentage?

Hi!
I have quite a few recipes for Scottish Shortbread, including ones for Pitcaithly Bannock, and Petticoat Tails, some with
rice flour added, some with cornflour, some that use caster sugar, and some that call for icing sugar, even brown sugar. Oh, yes… and
shortbread cookies!
Do you have any favourite kinds to recommend? Or have you some guidelines to follow so I can choose only one or two recipes?
They all vary with respect to the flour-sugar-butter measures also. Please?
Thank you very much!

I want to know if it’s possible to make your own pure icing sugar out of caster sugar or white sugar? Or if I should just go out and buy some. ;D
In case anyone wants to know, I’m using the icing sugar to make this: http://www.taste.com.au/recipes/14586/basic+butter+icing. It’s just some basic butter icing for a cake.

i got a recipe from a magazine for making shortcake biscuits, i made then and they’ve turned out as a disaster. I used an egg, flour, butter and caster sugar as i was directed to and they turned out looking alright but inside it was all really crumbly and had a horrible taste. Has anyone got any recipies for making them but with different ingredients?

I have tried many recipes and each time the pav ends up looking like my dog has sat on it..also the inside is generally hollow in many places, not at all full like the shop bought one.
I know that some cracking is normal, but mine are toooo cracked and toooo flat. Does anyone know the secret to making a real pav? many thanks
FYI – I beat 12 egg whites until stiff, then gradually add 3 cups of caster sugar, then fold in 1 tbsp vanilla essence and 1 tbsp white vinegar, and 1 tbsp cornflour.
Then i put mixture on a baking tray into a 150 degree oven for 1 hour, turn oven off and leave till morning. Result = disaster!
hi Patti – yes, I have done what you said, but somehow my pavs are still disasterous!

The yummy kind you can buy on the beach.. There must be an easy way. I tried to look it up online, there are all these weird ingredients I don’t know where to find, like caster sugar or pint milk. Whats up with that? Can’t I use regular sugar or milk?

I am making a thing similar to a strawberry pie.
I am using about 400g of strawberries.
Can I simply; add strawberries and caster sugar into a bowl and beat it – then possibly heat the mixture in a pan with some cornflower starch? (or something similar?)
I previously made a strawberry puree by beating strawberries and caster sugar in a bowl. I said about the corn starch for the filling as I think it would need to be thicker.
Can you please help?

1) i am making cookie dough but i have no caster sugar. can i replace it with maple syrup? if yes, how much maple syrup for 3/4 cup of caster sugar?
2) the recipe also says i can use 3 oz caster sugar and 3 oz brown sugar (which i have) can i also use maple syrup with this option?
i also have some honey, can i use that?
sorry i made a mistake above, i meant instead of 3 oz caster sugar and 3 oz brown sugar, can i use 3 oz syrup or honey and 3 oz brown sugar?

I only have enough caster sugar left for the actual cake, so can I use icing sugar instead for the icing? Will it still work?

My recipe for the base is:
2 cups of plain flour
2 teaspoons of dried yeast
1 teaspoon of caster sugar
1/2 tablespoon of salt
2 tablespoon of olive oil
3/4 cup of warm water.
Will I need to cream my yeast before I start?
