Aunty Yochana said...: Hi Shine,

When I was a little girl, my mum used to make beautiful butter cake without a machine. All she needs is me and my sister with a wooden spoon.

I will use a wooden and stir the butter and sugar vigorously while my sister will use a hand whisk to whisk the eggs and sugar and my mum will then combine both together , alternating with the sieved flour.

Give a try on this old method...have fun.
