Blueberry Buckle Recipe Don'ts

  https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/7985/blueberry-buckle/ Here are some good ol’ recipe DON’TS I learned while baking this blueberry buckle.  #1 Don’t assume it’s 2 CUPS of flour like you’re used to with cookies and breads. It may just be 2 TABLESPOONS.  #2 When it says “warm butter,” don’t heat it up til totally melted on the stove. #3 If you just can’t wait for butter to warm naturally by sitting out and do the don’t in number 2, at least don’t put it in the freezer to “cool off,” because you will forget it and you will get frozen butter, and you’ll be putting it back on the stove to warm back up. But maybe try on LOW and actually watch it this time. #4 Don’t be too cavalier about flour. It will get everywhere.  #5 Don’t give up. I poured my eggs and sugar mixture into my two heaping cups of flour and thought, hmph that just doesn’t look right. Do I need more milk? What is this supposed to even look like? After checking the recipe again and thinking surely SOMEWHERE it said 2 cups.
