@Claire: Thanks for the Snapguide education. I definitely overlooked the tiny tab that says "supplies" at the very bottom of only the very first page. And definitely breezed through the preheat step. No excuse there. @Stacy G.: Obviously, I have not. @both: Any other tips to enhance my Snapguide experience?

@Erik: Bake @400 for 7-10 min. If you actually READ the guide you would have seen it. Btw, Claire has actually MADE a Snapguide. Have you?

Sweet guide, Claire. But you know what would be helpful? A list of ingredients. And details like quantities and baking temps. That's what a guide is.
