What is Creaming Butter and How is it Done?

Creaming Butter

A creamy, fluffy consistency is just what you want when creaming butter.

Creaming butter is basically beating it together until it is lighter in color. With white sugar, the final color will be yellowish white. With brown sugar, the final color will be a sort of tan. An electric mixer is the best tool for creaming butter. The purpose of the creaming is so that air may be incorporated into the butter to add a ‘fluffy’ consistency to the final product. Creaming the butter will also soften it and make it easier to blend with other ingredients.
To get the best result, start with cold butter. Softened butter may be used, but make sure it is still colder than room temperature. Beat in the sugar until the mixture is the desired color.

Welcome to my corner of the internet! I'm so glad you're here. :) [Read More...]
