• Turn the mixer to low and add the chunks of butter slowly to the dry mix. Continue to beat on low until there are no chunks of butter remaining and the mixture becomes crumbly. Add a third of the wet ingredients to the bowl and then turn the speed to medium. Mix until a light paste forms, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Add half of the remaining wet ingredients and beat on medium-high speed for 4 minutes. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl.
