And here's my 3rd CNY goodies for 2017! Always a favorite recipe and goodie every year, but I'm trying out a new recipe this year. As usual, I always go for simple recipes but still as yummy! This 4-ingredient recipe from Baking Tai Tai is a winner! Salted Egg Yolk Cookies Ingredients 100g salted butter (I notice Golden Churn butter gives it a better flavor) 50 caster sugar 4 cooked salted egg yolks 200g...
I love eating pineapple tarts, finding ones that are nice can be difficult. One that is crumbly, buttery enough yet isn't too sweet. Sourcing for commercial ones are difficult, researching for recipes that gives you the most satisfying results are even more difficult. One of the groups I joined, shared this recipe from Nasi Lemak Lover. And oh boy! The ingredients are so simple! Only 4 ingredients needed. It's so easy to bake and it...
Because this CNY goodie is Mr Loh's favorite, I attempted to make this many years ago but failed terribly. Thanks to the Facebook group I joined, someone tried out this recipe and commented that it was really good and has that 'melt-in-your-mouth' texture, which is an important aspect to the success of this cookie. So thanks to fatboo numerous experiments on his recipe, I successfully produced an extremely fragrant and melt-in-your-mouth kueh bangkit that MIL...
I love tiramisu! Love the combination of mascarphone cheese, coffee, and liquer in this dessert, because each of those ingredients are my favorite! Many years back, I've attempted Tiramisu, where the recipe can be found in the Cheese Category of my blog. The recipe and ingredients were simple and the results was delicious as well. However, the recipe I had was meant to be presented in cup, rather than cake form. Well, presenting in cup...
I've never liked baking butter cake, that's because I've never found a good recipe that doesn't result in a dry and coarse butter cake. But now that I have completed Wilton Course 3, a dense cake is essential for making sure the whole cake doesn't collapse when it's covered and decorated with fondant and gum paste. So I asked around and Googled. And I manage to get my answer to not just a very delicious...
My favorite all time drink! One that seldom goes wrong too! So having come across such a recipe for cupcake definitely spikes my interest! Got the recipe from BrownEyedBaker, and reviews I've received from my colleagues are great! Mojito Cupcakes Ingredients ½ cup buttermilk ½ cup mint leaves, bruised 190g all-purpose flour 1½ teaspoons baking powder ¼ teaspoon salt 115g unsalted butter, at room temperature 200g granulated sugar 2 eggs, at room temperature Zest...
I've always been wanting to lay my hands on this book. Okashi Treats: Sweet Treates Made with Love by Keiko Ishida. I finally got it and love reading the book! It includes recipe for basic recipes, complete with illustrations for some of the steps. And every recipe comes with tips to note. Love it to bits! So this weekend, I tried my hands on Black Sesame Chiffon Cake. The recipe is slightly lighter in flavor...
More experiments on Chai Tea. This time its Chai Tea Chiffon Cake with Chai Whipped Cream. I adapted the Chai Cream recipe from this site. But instead of preparing all the spices, I infused the cream with the tea leaves from T2. The steps are exactly the same, and the cream is prepared one day before so that it's cold enough to be whipped. Chai Tea Chiffon Cake Ingredients (A) 225g all-purpose flour 1 tsp...
I remember the Chai Cake that I had from The Patissier years ago. With more exposure to Chai Tea Latte recently, I start appreciating the unique taste to Chai even more, and this brought back memory of the cake I had many years ago. It's amazing how flavors can help to bring back wonderful memories, 'cause I still vaguely remember where and under what environment I had the cake. So while I was shopping for...
