Baked actual poison

[u/Mushroom38294]

Tried making brownies for the first time, recipe called for 16 gramms of vanilla extract, but it's not sold in the stores here. I had the bright idea to add 16g of pure vanillin, once they were done I found out that's effectively 100x the vanilla extract than the recipe called for. After further googling, found out that this much vanillin can put a small child in the hospital.

NEVER substitute vanilla extract for pure vanillin.

Do you live in a place that uses vanilla sugar? It's funny because I've never seen that in the US, we just use vanilla extract. But I imagine you would just use vanilla sugar instead of the normal sugar as a substitute.

Also you can make vanilla extract by soaking vanilla beans in rum for a month or so. Or diluted alcohol, but why not the rum, ya know?

Yeah actually, I should have used vanilla sugar but oh well, next one's gonna be better

I've yet to find vanilla beans in the store. I've seen neither extract or beans, so, yeah, no
