My Lovely babies...

Brandy cake

Had some leftover brandy after baking fruit cake during Christmas so i used it to make brandy cake.... Hmmm but must say that i didn't really succeed.. The taste was not too bad but it was a lil hard.

Pandan Muffins... 2nd attempt

The previous time i baked pandan muffins they were not so soft and it did rise much.. so as a result a lil short haha.. but this time round the muffins were taller and softer like how muffins are meant to be. I topped some muffins with chocolate chips and left the rest plain. Have a look at it! Compare it to this.

Pineapple Tarts

I made pineapple tarts for Christmas and this time round i think this time round it the pineapple paste was a lil watery and didn't stay fresh for too long. I could only keep it for about 3 weeks but nevertheless it tasted marvelous. ;)

No Bake Oreo Cheesecake

HmmmM... I've not posted anything for sometime.. well made oreo cheesecake sometime back. Its my first attempt so does not look so professional hahaha. In terms of taste, I think it was not bad but there's room for more improvement. The recipe actually does not require the oreo base to be baked but ya itchy fingers ... i baked it so as a result it was quite hard. When i tried to cut, the base crumbled a lil. Guess I gotta learn from mistakes.

Chocolate cupcakes topped with whipped cream

Baked these babies for my friends a few days back... I have baked these chocolate cupcakes 3 times so far and this time round, the cupcakes had a rich taste of chocolate.. YUM YUM. Instead of topping them with butter cream icing, I topped them with vanilla whipped cream. Hmmm, but haha made a mistake by over beating my whipped cream so the icing seems a lil watery. So guess gotta learn from mistakes...
