Note

Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. The mix may soften if exposed to humidity, so keep the lid tightly closed.

Variations: For a vegan version, ensure your Worcestershire sauce is vegan-friendly or substitute with a splash of soy sauce. You can also swap the margarine for butter for a richer flavor.

Tips: Stirring regularly during baking is crucial to prevent the edges from burning while the center remains moist. If the mix is still soft after cooling, return it to the oven for another 5-10 minutes.

Ingredient Note: The original recipe listed ingredients in a confusing manner (e.g., "Crisix 1/4 teaspoon Garlic salt"). This enhanced version separates the dry ingredients from the wet seasoning components for clarity and proper measurement.
