Some cookbook measurements: Abbr.

TSPS

Think of the small utensil you might use to measure vanilla extract or spices—its name is often shortened in recipes.

This clue asks for an abbreviation commonly used in cookbooks to represent small measurements. "TSPS" stands for "teaspoons," a unit you'd see in recipes alongside tablespoons (TBSPS) or cups. The "Abbr." in the clue signals that the answer is a shortened form rather than the full word. It’s a straightforward abbreviation puzzle with no hidden wordplay.
