Recipes on The Purple Pumpkin Blog use both cup measurements and/or weighted measurements. American cups and kitchen food scales are handy pieces of equipment to have in your kitchen as it means you’ll be able to make all of the different recipes on my blog. I try to give American, imperial, and metric measurements in my recipes. Please note, you can mix cup measurements with weighted measurements, but never mix imperial (pounds, ounces, pints, etc.,) with metric (kilograms, grams, litres, etc.,).

Recipe Tips
- If you want to cut corners, you could use a tray of ready-made (uncut) brownies from stores like Costco, Sams’s Club, etc., instead of making them from scratch. This is perfect if you need a last-minute cute dessert! Just skip to the recipe where you cut out the Mickey Mouse-shapes from the brownies.
