It was a little bland. - 11/4/11

I looked up the recipe on cooks.com, and it lists 1 c skim milk. It also lists the calorie count as 80 per 8-oz cup, which seemed far too low. Sorry I don't know how to edit the recipe once posted.

What is the oven temp? I set my oven for 300 a very small fast baking apartment size oven. Thanks - 8/22/11

Reply from AQUAJANE (8/22/11)
Oops. I don't remember. My default oven temperature is 350 F, and I usually don't bake below 325 unless specified in the recipe, but I'd be interested in hearing if 300 works.
