Hello: I cleaned up the ingredients list a bit. Many of the ingredients didn't include an actual quantity, so I changed them all to 1s (except the sugar, which is specified as 3/4 cup in the instructions). You might want to double check the quantities to ensure they are correct.
Also, the ingredients list includes egg and vanilla extract, but neither are included in the instructions. At which point should they be incorporated in your recipe?
