I have a question about this recipe if some one can tell me. It states to
bake at 350 for about 30 minutes. Then if you want you can refrigerate it
and I guess bake it later, at 350 to 375 for around 60 minutes. Does this
mean to bake a whole thirty minutes longer because it is just cold, not that
it was frozen? Or does it mean to bake, cover and store in fridge, then
warm it up for 60 mins in that hot of oven? I am thinking it means to bake
for one hour if you have not bake it before placing in a fridge. ?? Katie
confused! grin.
