Different type of oven resulted differently, you may know your oven charateristic. Like my oven, usually I will baked first until the walnut half-cook before add on the cake. However, if you oven is hot type, then you can straight away add on top of your cake before baking.<br /><br />The butter and vanilla beat on high speed until the butter turn pale & fluffy.<br /><br />Happy Baking!DGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12420436556920672758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466289198109477960.post-62479523949613209742012-06-05T17:10:54.340+08:002012-06-05T17:10:54.340+08:00Sorry to disturb, beat the butter and Vanilla at h...Sorry to disturb, beat the butter and Vanilla at high or low speed?

I will suggest that once you creamy butter ready beated, while keep beating (I used hand mixer), add the egg mixture slowly or partially into the creamy butter until well blended (make sure not too long beaten).<br /><br />Happy Baking!! :)DGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12420436556920672758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466289198109477960.post-20350684199999093892011-08-15T20:55:54.330+08:002011-08-15T20:55:54.330+08:00Hi,

Is it hard to mix them? I am imagining that the egg mixture is thickly runny and the creamy butter is not that runny,will it work to mix them together by hand?<br /><br />Love your blog ;)<br /><br />thanksssssssssssssAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466289198109477960.post-88659321064937805942011-02-20T22:30:03.896+08:002011-02-20T22:30:03.896+08:00Anonymous,

Why not to try this out, sure you will do much better than me :)<br /><br />Hearty Bakes,<br />Sorry, just saw it now. The sweetness still okay for my taste, but if you prefer not too sweet, you can reduce further the sugar 20-30 gr. <br />Just be careful on the mixing creamy butter & egg mixture stage, do it slowly with mixer. <br />Looking forward to your beautiful baking soon :)DGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12420436556920672758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466289198109477960.post-6065496003887692912011-02-12T15:19:20.756+08:002011-02-12T15:19:20.756+08:00wow...looks ultra deli, soft and spongy!
