Pretreating Flour
- Microwave Method: First start by treating your flour. Spread the flour on a large plate or baking dish to fit in your microwave. Microwave for about 1 minute, adding additional 15 second increments as needed, until the flour reaches a temperature of 160 F. (90 seconds works perfectly for me)
- Oven Method: Heat treat the flour by spreading it out on a baking sheet and baking it at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 5 minutes.
Whisk the flour to break up the flour chunks and let it cool down before using to make cookie dough frosting recipe.
