Crack Egg in Cup Before Measuring Shortening

Tired of trying to clean the margarine or shortening out of the measuring cup after you use it? I am! But I discovered a trick today. If your recipe calls for an egg(s), crack the egg into the measuring cup your going to use for measuring the margarine or shortening. Pour the egg into your mixing bowl, now using the same measuring cup that the egg was in, measure out the margarine or shortening.

You will be surprised at how easily the margarine or shortening comes out leaving behind no greasy gobs of shortening or margarine.
