ReplyDeleteSo, how is your CNY celebration this year? baking any cookie? organizing any CNY gathering?
Hi,
ReplyDeleteIf you don't mind when you got the time could you kindly advise me on
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter = to how many grams, 1/2 pkg. (4 oz) Philadelphia cream cheese = to how many grams and do you bake the cake using 350ºF. Is 350ºF equal to 180C?
Thank you for your advise.

Mixue,
1 stick of butter = 113g

And yes 350'F = 180'C.

ReplyDeletehello!
ReplyDeletei made this recipie today and its SOOO GOOOD! i am so happy!
thank you for this simple and delicious recipe :)
You're welcome cece! Soooo good right? My keeper recipe.
ReplyDeleteI tried making the pound cake last night. Overall it taste very good but I got one question to ask. Why is the bottom of my cake a bit wet whereas the top is fine fluffy and light?
ReplyDeleteI tried baking this pound cake last night. Turn out very good but the botton of the pound cake a bit wet.
ReplyDeleteCan I ask why this is so? And another question. I am using a table top oven so when I bake I used the grill as well as the botton heater. Is this correct way to bake the cake?
Pooh Shim,
ReplyDeleteBottom a little wet seem like too much butter, try cut it down 1 Tbsp. and see what happen. Normally for baking cake, it's best to use the top heating element only (conventional oven). But I'm not sure this will cause your cake to be wet at the bottom though.
Hi,
ReplyDeleteI had tried it out. Is super nice.
Thank you for sharing.
