Thank you!!Anonymous[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092092153094298213.post-30602733590951231982012-01-12T22:33:24.909+08:002012-01-12T22:33:24.909+08:00More questions: you say preheat oven to180 degrees.. but what heat shld I bake cake at? Also, what does T stand for? U mentioned table spoon in your instructions but does that apply to the salt too?<br /><br />OK, I&#39;ve baked one cake using agak-agak method but would appreciate further enlightenment for new attempts.<br /><br />I used olive oil (no thanks to margarine; worse than butter); the cake wasn&#39;t too heavy. After all, when butter melts, it too becomes oil :lol:Lucy1808[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092092153094298213.post-71762592928624843762012-01-09T18:44:32.450+08:002012-01-09T18:44:32.450+08:00hi, it should be about 1 cup = 8 fluid ounces..but I have never tried making this with olive oil so I think the texture is going to be markedly different. You could try substituting with margarine instead?Smoky Wok (Tastes of Home)http://www.tastesofhome.blogspot.com[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092092153094298213.post-73078176021102547482012-01-09T18:32:15.589+08:002012-01-09T18:32:15.589+08:00May I know how much 227 gms of butter wld be in liquid form?

You could probably make 2 short layers if you use 8 inch pans. Hope that helps. Or you could bake in one pan and cut the layers yourself though it&#39;s probably more of a hassle?Jen (Tastes of Home)http://www.blogger.com/profile/04966792588380354927[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092092153094298213.post-22786578703490451092010-10-06T04:14:33.599+08:002010-10-06T04:14:33.599+08:00this recipe makes two layers, yes?Anonymous[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092092153094298213.post-3904627819024921762010-10-05T14:14:56.242+08:002010-10-05T14:14:56.242+08:00both yours and lk&#39;s versions look delicious. your almond cupcake is very cute too. great job!noobcookhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07275360504126407602[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092092153094298213.post-43655687558056883202010-10-05T09:44:38.231+08:002010-10-05T09:44:38.231+08:00I love butter cakes, and m<br />veri choosy too..Yours is what i want...Yummy..Anonymous[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092092153094298213.post-45434505277261162162010-10-05T08:27:47.232+08:002010-10-05T08:27:47.232+08:00The simple butter cake is always the winner in my family.
