Baking Powder

I am so stoked to share this right now, it's not even funny.

Ok I'm going to give you a little worst-case scenario to you and proceed to solve the problem!
You've been eying a recipe for a few weeks and finally decide to make the cake/muffins/whatever-craving you've been denying.  You're 90% of the way through your recipe when . . . dun, dun, DUUUUUN --- you have zero baking powder.  Obviously someone stole it because a staple like that would never ever leave your baking kitchen.  So what do you do? . . . well my friends.  Because of my excellent baking knowledge A+ googling skills, I am proud to pronounce you baking powdered.  After you finish reading this post, you will never be without baking powder again!

So what do you do when you mistakenly forget to buy more baking powder?  Simple -- seek out your pantry for baking soda and cream of tartar!  I just about cried when I found the answer to my baking powder problems.  Combine one part baking soda with two parts cream of tartar, make sure their mixed well, and voila!  Welcome to baking powder heaven.

To write it out more clearly:
1 teaspoon of baking powder + 2 teaspoons of cream of tartar = 3 teaspoons of baking powder.

I've actually used this in a muffin recipe, and it actually works!

Good luck!

Thanks for stopping by!!

Love,
