For example, the “quick mix” method
(sometimes referred to as the “dump”

such as the Quick Yellow Cake and
Easy White Cake included in this

be used to simplify adding ingredients.

Adding Nuts, Raisins, or
Candied Fruits
Follow individual recipes for guidelines
on including these ingredients. In
general, solid materials should be
folded in the last few seconds of mixing
on Stir Speed. The batter should be
thick enough to prevent the fruit or nuts
from sinking to the bottom of the pan
during baking. Sticky fruits should be
dusted with fl our for better distribution in
the batter.

Liquid Mixtures
Mixtures containing large amounts
of liquid ingredients should be mixed
at lower speeds to avoid splashing.
Increase mixer speed only after the
mixture has thickened.
