lil chef tips:

• to determine whether you have creamed your butter and sugar till its desired texture, tip over your mixing bowl (180 degrees), if the mixture is stiff and does not fall off, you can stop creaming the batter
• to avoid wastage of cornflakes, measure 1 1/2 cups of cornflakes first, and add on if necessary
