I could not copy all of recipe. frustrating!
i love to try new recipes and i enjoy cooking very much.
NEED DIRECTION’S PRINTED OUT
why aren’t we able to copy the entire recipe? Or why don’t you have a print feature? Not much use if I can’t see it when I’m in the kitchen.
Is the whiskey enjoy while baking or should i add that with the pumpkin pie spice?
Since there doesn’t seem to be any other way provided, the simplest way to print this out is just to copy and paste the Ingredients, then the Directions into an email to yourself or into a Word document. Works very well and very simple to do.
