Hey all
I want to make flapjacks and found this recipe on here:
http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showpost.html?p=469504&postcount=100
What is granulated suger? I have normal white suger, caster sugar and a small amount of icing sugar. Can I use one of these?
Also should I use salted or unsalted butter? I have both in fridge.
Sorry for all the questions, I'm a newbie baker
TIA

granulated sugar is normal sugar - I never buy caster sugar as its just granulated ground a bit finer. if recipe calls for caster sugar i just stick that amount in plastic bag and run rolling pin over it until its finer. I hate paying extra for caster sugar! oh and if you have the patience - you can keep going and make icing sugar!!! (I buy that)!0

I never buy icing sugar but needed some for a recipe once so I tipped granulated onto the spinning blades of my liqiudiser and let it have a quick whizz.
It wasn't quite as fine as icing sugar (still a little bit gritty) but it did the job quite well.0 -
They have turned out yummy! Thanks peeps
