Re: Cream shortening/butter

Dont you usually cream butter/shortening with sugar? I usually just use a hand mixer to do it until it gets kinda fluffy.

You can do it with a spoon but you need to really work it through well until it's creamy Chat Icon Mixer is easier.

Use a mixer, and the colour of the butter will change to a lighter yellow.
