A few days ago I posted to let you guys know, if there is ever an ingredient you do not have or do not want to use, simply ask and I will give you alternative options. Here is a handy list of some common substitutions in cooking/baking.
Substitutions
Arrowroot 2tsp. = 1 and 3/4 TBSP. flour
Baking Powder 1tsp.= 1/2 tsp. cream of tartar and 1/4 tsp. baking soda
Butter 1 cup= 7/8 cup oil
Chocolate, Unsweetened 1 square= 3 TBSP cocoa and 1 and 1/2 tsp. oil or shortening
Cornstarch 1 TBSP. = 2 TBSP. flour
AP Flour 1 cup= 1 cup and 2 TBSP. cake flour
Cake Flour 1 cup= 7/8 cup all purpose flour
Sugar 1 cup= 1 cup honey and 1/4 tsp. baking soda
Substituting can help you in a pinch, or in avoiding certain ingredients for any reason. It can also be very useful if you are trying to cut corners to save a few bucks.
