Traditional Butter Cake

So while I was trying to avoid the rain on my way back home after a good lunch with Pei, I managed to grab Alex Goh's 'Baking Code' from Popular Bookstore. Local cookbooks are always the best plus the steps in his book are clear and precise, which is good!

Anyhow, I tried out his recipe on Traditional Butter Cake. And it was yummy!
