I know, I know…another chocolate dessert recipe but it is the mooncake festival anyway. And I don’t know why but I wanted to try my hands at baking my own mooncakes again. Last year’s chocolate mooncakes were a disaster when I brushed on too much egg glaze and the mooncakes looked horrible although it tasted absolutely heavenly.
So, this year, I baked the regular plain mooncakes and a batch of chocolate mooncakes too. You can find the recipes in my recipes page. Again, this year, I bought the ready-made fillings of lotus paste, chocolate paste and red bean paste. . . . → Read More: Baked Chocolate Mooncake Skin
Honestly, I’ve never even heard of Batik Cake until a friend raved about how great and rich and nice and all that to me. It sure did piqued my interest. The best of it is that it is a non-bake cake. It’s one of those cook over the stove, stir, pat into pan and refrigerate type of cake.
Considering I have been limiting my baking activities because I was not in the mood much nowadays, I thought heck, why not? A non-bake cake with loads of cocoa in it sounds simple and good enough.
Who needs to go to Cameron Highlands for some English tea scones when you can make it at home? I am not really a scone fan but then, that’s because I’ve never had really good ones until I tried some really good ones in Cameron Highland’s Ye Olde Smokehouse Hotel. Those are really amazing.
So.
I decided to make it myself. I mean, if I can bake up cakes and cookies, what are scones, right? Right. So, I went searching around the net and found several recipes until I decided to take whatever I feel comfortable with and wing . . . → Read More: Homemade English tea scones
Okay, so the past few posts are calorie-loaded, fat-loaded, sinfully wonderful desserts so I think it is only right I put up a comparatively healthier dessert recipe that made its appearance only in recent years. I don’t even know what it’s called but most of the stalls selling this dessert will often label it as Soya Milk Jelly. Well, I would say it is more like a soya milk pudding than anything.
I made it with a can of evaporated milk instead of soya milk since I had that available. It is pretty easy to make actually and does . . . → Read More: Healthy Soya Milk Pudding, well sort of healthy…
Another of my favourite dessert definitely has to be brownies. If you search this site, you will probably find that I have two other brownie recipes, a non-bake brownie and the best-ever brownie recipes. Now, what can compete with the best-ever chocolate brownie recipe I had?
Well, if you love peanut butter, you will think this recipe is way better than just chocolate and almonds in the brownies. I mean what is a better combination than peanut butter and chocolate eh? Don’t believe me? Then try it out for yourself.
I simply love Oreos. And other than eating them plain, I have come across a recipe for Oreo Truffles a few times before and thought it would definitely be great. So, one day, when the craving strikes, I decided to try making my own Oreo Truffles…
And yes, these aren’t exactly round but of odd shapes…but then who cares? We are eating them and no matter the shape, they are good. Really, really good, if I may say so myself. If you love Oreos and cheese cakes, then these are definitely what you should try!!! These are no . . . → Read More: Creamy, chocolate cheesy Oreo Truffles
I posted this entry quite a while back but because at that time, I was moving host for this blog and it somehow got lost in space…so, I am re-posting it.
I have not been able to cook or bake for a few months and finally, after all that horrible fatigue and retching, I am feeling much better to be back in action in the kitchen. My energy level is still not as great as it used to be but still, I am able to cooking up some stuff whenever the mood strikes me.
