use butter flavored Crisco
Yes, but the flavor will be altered and not have the butter flavor from the butter flavored shortening
Yes, for one cup of shortening use one cup of butter.
Yes you can. You can use any flavor you wish but sometimes you probably should just use the flavoring suggesting but it's totally up to you. That's what wee do when we make frosting for my cakes. I am a cake decorator and we substitute flavors depending on the flavor of the cake.
use butter flavored crisco You could use margarine. http://www.ukfoodies.co.uk has a delicious cookie recipe, this recipe has butter, but you could substitute it with margarine.
Use the same amount of butter as you would shortening. In bread, a tablespoon of butter can be used instead of a tablespoon of shortening. The same amount of canola oil is even healthier.
Possibly a bland flavored oil (such as sunflower). But the result will not be as good.
it should be a little less, however, if you MUST substitute butter, you are better off to use margarine, you will find that it tastes better than shortening.
Yes, the topping will be a bit less buttery, but it should turn out fine. If you prefer, you can substitute two or three tablespoons of shortening or neutral flavored oil for the missing butter.
I always use butter. You may want to adjust the salt in the recipe if not using unsalted butter.
Vegetable oil and butter are two types of shortening. All fats and oils are shortening, and can be substituted for each other, but this will affect the flavour and texture of the food, as some shortenings have stronger and different flavours, and also have different melting points.
You can use either-I personally prefer butter. ............. Butter gives a better flavor to the cookies and does not have the unhealthy partially hydrogenated vegetable oils that are in shortening.
