What is neutral oil?
Hi Katie, A “neutral oil” is a flavorless cooking oil such as vegetable, grapeseed, and canola. These types of oil are recommended in baking for their clean, simple flavor. Happy Baking!
The recipe says 1/2 cup of butter or 2 sticks. Two sticks of butter is one cup, so which is it?
Thank you
Great catch Sharon! The correct amount of butter is 1/2 cup (1 stick). The recipe has been updated. Happy Baking!
