Here's the stuff that we know about Creaming Butter and Sugar...
Take some softened butter and cut it into cubes. Push the butter into a deep bowl and add the sugar. Put an electric whisk on the lowest setting and break the butter up into the sugar.
Increase the whisk's speed and mix for about 1 minute until you have a light and creamy mixture. If the butter breaks down during softening or creaming, place the butter, or the butter and sugar mixture, into the fridge for 5 to 15 minutes, then start creaming again.
