Confessions Of A Bake-a-holic
Simple Butter Cake

So i was up for another baking session in the kitchen. And this time, ive decided to bake something simple. Just a plain normal butter cake. The thing about butter cake is that you
are able to bake it as a cake or you can bake it as muffins! And also, If you add ingredients
like blueberry. It becomes blueberry cake/muffin. Baking a butter cake is simple and
it is very flexible, as you can decide what kind of a butter cake that you want to bake
by just adding the specific ingredients.
Servings: 12

Ingredients:
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup butter
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup milk

Eggs and butter, some of the ingredients that i will be using.
My portion of ingredients is much smaller. Because
i will not be cooking for 12 people but 4.

Firstly, Prepare your ingredients!
Next, Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Grease and flour a baking pan or line a muffin pan with paper liners.

In a medium bowl, cream together the sugar and butter.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
Combine flour and baking powder, add to the creamed mixture and mix well.
Finally stir in the milk until batter is smooth.

Next,
Pour or spoon batter into the prepared pan.

I decided to use my heart shaped baking pan for my Butter cake!

And here are my Muffins!
Lastly, after you're done putting your mixture into the baking pan/muffin tray
Bake for 30 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven.
For cupcakes, bake 20 to 25 minutes.
Cake is done when it springs back to the touch.


Tip: Use a toothpick and give your cake a poke.
If the toothpick comes out clean, then ur cake is ready! *winks

Final Outcome?

Diary of a Self Confessed Bakaholic!

Sorry darlings if i havent been updating, cousins have been over and exams are drawing nearr.
Headed out to vivo last night, and very content, cos i came home with ClotheS from Pull And Bear and Forever 21. And a Huge smile on my face. Anyways we were spose to bake a cake, so Cousin and i Headed out to Cold Storage at like 8pm to get the Ingredients. I dread grocery shopping. Got home at 9...and our baking adventure begins... we're not professionals okay...
so yes the kitchen turned out really messy. haha

Here's our recipe and Method of baking a really quick awesome chocolate cake in like half an hour.. You can follow it...but dont come after me, if urs didnt turn out good. =p

Ingredients:

1 Betty Crocker Cake mix (easier)
3/4 Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 and 1/4 cup of Water
1 Box of Icing Sugar
6 Eggs
Gummy Bears
Jelly Beans
Or Other wonderfull snacks
Like M&Ms , Tootsie pops and even Mealworms xD




Firstly....

Dump like All your ingredients in one big mixing bowl xD
(Leave the sweets for decorations and leave 3 eggs out, dump the rest in)

It will look like this......

Mix it well
It will have a sloppy texture...and since its chocolate
Chocolate + Sloppy texture
=

Looks really wrong la Lol!
Leave it aside.....time to do the icing...

Next, Seperate 3 egg yolks from the egg white, collect the
Egg white, and whip it!! It takes awhile if u whip it
manually.
whip it until it is in a non liquid form.
Add the whole box of icing sugar in, once whipped properly.
And mix it. You can add food colourings , depending
on the colour that you want ur icing to be.

Take ur cake mix , pour it into a baking pan and
bake it at 180 Degrees..for 25 mins or longer

Take ur cake out, put icing...
And now the fun part...Decorating it with Jelly Beans
Strawberries etc!

The Final Outcome!
