Hi HF,

I don't have any milk powder. Will it affect the recipe if I skip it, or use normal milk instead? If I can use normal milk, how much do you think would be sufficient? Sorry to bug you...

Hi anonymous,

You can skip the milk powder, but you have to estimate and reduce the liquid. You can also replace it with coffee creamer.
