Step:

  1. Grind white sugar and brown sugar together in a mixer jar. Grind to a fine powder.

  2. In a large bowl add soft butter (butter should not be too soft as u can see it oily and shiny). Just soft to touch. Sieve all the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder)together. Add these dry ingredients to the butter bowl. Then add the eggs and beat for 1 minute. Use an electric hand beater.
