Tips
Test Kitchen Tips:
- Browned butter is made by melting butter over low heat until the milk solids turn light brown and the butter is golden brown and fragrant. It adds nutty flavor and color to baked goods and sauces.
- To rewarm cake, place on baking sheet and bake in preheated 325°F oven 15 to 20 minutes or until warmed through.
