Kraft Kitchens Tips
Size-Wise
Trying to pace your eating at a party? Preview your choices and be selective instead of taking some of everything.
Caution
Use heavy oven mitts or potholders when removing bowl from microwave as candy mixture will be extremely hot. If available, use a 2-qt. glass measuring cup with handle as a large microwaveable bowl.
