Hi,
Can I heat the butter melt into liquid and then beat them with sugar ?
Instead of beating butter with sugar, can I beat egg with sugar in the first step, is the texture the same ?
Thanks.
Hi Jin Fong, If you want to change method for making the butter cake, the texture would be different.
Oh Ann…the orange cakes look so good…I love it…and like it moist…citrus and buttery…perfect with a cup of tea.
