Best Butter Cake Recipe after 30 cakes or more - with KitchenAid
Butter cake is probably one of the first cakes most people would make when they start baking. Surely, there’s nothing to it, just butter, eggs, flour and sugar. However, there are an infinite number of ways of combining and proportioning these ingredients if you want to make that perfect buttercake that is moist, buttery and have that perfect texture.
So, after baking 30 or 40 cakes, I present to you my best buttercake recipe! Please read the full recipe writeup here - bit.ly/ieatButterCakeRecipe
For this recipe, I used KitchenAid’s latest stand mixer, the KSM195 Tilt-head that features the colour of the year - beetroot! What I really like about it is that it comes with a second 3 litre bowl that fits nicely into the larger 4.8L bowl during storage, a pouring shield and a flex-edge beater that saves you the trouble of having to scrape down the sides whilst mixing. There is also a pastry beater that helps when you’re crumbing butter and flour. This is currently available for sale at kitchenaid.sg and Tangs.
I know a lot of you have also tried many butter cake recipes and also felt like I did. Do give this recipe a try and see if it yields that butter cake that you are looking for!
Do watch to the end for the bloopers. Happy Baking!

Dear Dr, I'm writing to you to extend my heartfelt appreciation for sharing your wonderful recipe. Your recipe came at the right time when I wanted to serve my mum her favourite butter cake, with the right texture, which I wasn't able to achieve for many years. Yesterday, I finally made it successfully 😊. This is very meaningful to me because I was able to serve my mum the best butter cake, before sending her off this morning on her last lap of journey. Thank you so much 💞. God bless you.

I made this cake today. I followed recipe as closely as possible (my 4 egg yolks weighed less than they should have & I didn’t have butter oil, so I added 2 teaspoons of vanilla instead of 1). It came out delicious. Perfect consistency. Smells great, nice little crunch, tastes like a little slice of heaven. My Mom would’ve loved this cake. I wish I had this recipe before she passed. It’s like a taste of home. Just wonderful. Thank you. Making 2 of these for a bake sale.
