Notes: If you give a rest to your mixture flour absorbs the liquid and your mixture will become thick. If you use the castor sugar in place of granulated sugar it will be excellent because castor sugar dissolves faster with butter and the mixture will become fluffy very fast. Or just grind the granulated sugar and you can save your time.
