Start by placing the handle opening of the cutting board over the holes where the beater attachments plug into your hand mixer. Insert the beaters through the hole to attach them to the mixer. Place the cutting board over the mixing bowl so the beaters drop down inside. The board should rest on top of the bowl like a lid.

Why This Trick Is So Smart and Some Extra Tips
Before trying this hack, make sure you have the right cutting board. A thin (but not too thin) cutting board with a large enough handle hole works best. Thick boards could be too heavy and may block your view of the mixture. Thin, flexible plastic cutting boards aren't sturdy enough for this task. In the video, it looks like Peterson is using a thin bamboo cutting board, which are widely available.
This trick is great for messy recipes. Frostings, whipped cream, buttercream, cake batters and anything involving powdered sugar or cocoa powder benefit most from this splash guard setup.
Pros and Cons of the Cutting Board Mixer Hack
Like all kitchen hacks, this one has its strengths and limitations.
Also, cutting boards are a breeze to wash compared to bulky mixer attachments, and this hack works for many types of bowls and recipes.
It's also a slightly awkward setup that may take a few tries to line up the handle hole with the bowl center and you can’t always see the mixture as clearly until you remove the board.
