    In small microwavable bowl, microwave vanilla baking chips on High 30 seconds. Stir until melted; if necessary, microwave in additional 10-second increments until melted.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    *To substitute for buttermilk, use 1 tablespoon vinegar or lemon juice plus milk to make 1 cup.
  • tip 2
    This delicious loaf makes a great gift. Place toothpicks into the top surface of the loaf to protect the icing from sticking. Then wrap the loaf in colored cellophane and tie with a pretty bow.
