    Hello All,

    I was trying to bake cake. It came out kind of OK. When I taste it, I felt butter was more. I was using the same quantities given in this forum. I am using the cooking butter. Someone please help me what kind of butter should I use. And, can I give only half the quantity of butter, to that of plain flour.

    Thanks,
    kiran.

    The usual thumb rule for baking cakes is equal quantities of sugar, egg, flour and butter, but may vary according to the receipe.
