Hiya peeps! As promised, here's the recipe for Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies I made a few
weeks ago. It was basically melted chocolate with a wee bit of flour and eggs and baked to a
chewy and gooey cookie!
Ingredients (Recipe is from David Lebovitz's Ready For Dessert Book)
450g bittersweet chocolate, I used Callebaut 58% cocoa buttons
60g butter
70g flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt,I sprinkled fleur the sel
4 large eggs
350g sugar, I used 250g sugar and 100g brown sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla paste
320g bittersweet chocolate, I used Ghirardelli
in the mean time, here's the recipe of what I call Everyday Chocolate Cake. I got the recipe from
Izzah Muffin Lover, instead of steaming the cake, I oven baked it but put water in several small
containers in the oven! Voila! The reason why I call this Everyday Chocolate Cake is because
one can just whip this any time, due to the simplicity of the recipe and the ingredients are readily
available in everyone's kitchen!
Ingredients
1 cup APF
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
250ml milk
2 eggs size B
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter (I used 125g)
3 tsbp condensed milk...you know when a recipe calls for susu pekat, you gotta try the recipe!
1/4 cup oil, I used my usual corn oil
2 tsp vanilla instead of 1...because my middle name is vanilla hihi
Method
Beat butter and sugar till light and fluffy, add eggs one by one, add sifted flour cocoa powder,
baking powder, salt (I added). Once incorporated add milk, susu pekat and oil.
Bake or steam in a preheated oven or steamer. I baked in 170C oven with small containers of
water (I used those small tart tins to put the water), using an 8 inch pan, for about 50 minutes.
Chocolate Ganache
Using double boil method I melted 200g dark chocolate, I used Callebaut and a few Valrhona
buttons, added 2 tbsp butter and 2 tbsp condensed milk
...after that I enjoy, enjoy, enjoy -ed the cake almost all by myself, as hubs is not a chocolate cake
person!

1 1/4 cup buttermilk
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder

4.Add gel colour, mix well.

Ingredients
40g egg yolks
Method
1.Beat egg yolks till pale and frothy.
2.Bring sugar and water to a boil in a saucepan to about 118C. I didnt use a thermometer, just
make sure your sugar syrup leaves a sticky mark on the side of the pan, when you tilt the pan.
3.Whip the sugar syrup into the egg yolks. Whip to the sides of the bowl is cool
4.Fold melted chocolate into the mixture, it will form a thick and gooey sauce.
5.Fold one third of the whip cream into the mixture to loosen.
6.Fold the rest of the whip cream until well incoporated.....at this point you can stop and enjoy
this dessert, but best to chill for at least 4 hours before serving.
7.Pour into desired containers, and chill ya!

Oreos Brownies!
Good afternoon peeps! I have seen this Brownies in Rima's blog
for quite a while. However, I never got round to doing it, as
there would always be a request from hubs or my kids to bake
something else....so, last night while waiting for my Red Velvet
cupcakes to cool before I could add the topping, I made this!
I love making brownies as there was no whisking required! You
just have to melt the butter and chocolates and incorporate the
sugar and flour and the other ingredients! And with this
brownies, it was a marriage between chocolates and Oreos
biscuits, what's there not to love! Yeah!!
Ingredients
225g butter, I used Anchor salted
240g cooking chocolate, I used Belcolade 70% choc buttons that I
got from Singapore
3 grade A eggs
1 tsp coffee powder, I used Nescafe Gold powder, my current like
1 tsp vanilla
250g caster sugar
60g flour
40g cocoa powder, I used Valrhona
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt, I still added!
1 1/2 packets Oreos biscuits, I used 1 packet which I crushed
with their cream...ollalla! Yumms!
Method
1.Melt butter and chocolate. I melted butter on slow fire, turned
off fire and added my chocolates and stir until all were melted
and incorporated. Let them cool a bit.
2.Add sugar, vanilla, and coffee powder. Add eggs one by one,
stir until well mixed.
3.Add sifted flour, baking powder and salt.
4.Stir in crushed Oreos biscuits!...no...I diligently added them
all into the batter,and managed to refrain myself from popping
one or two into my mouth! hehe!
As with any traditional cakes, this recipe was very easy to do, apart from the resting time for the
batter which was 3 hours. Apparently, the resting time was so that we achieve the sort of bubbles,
holes in the cake! Well, I got that texture, but there weren't that many holes, bubbles.....I think I
need not let the caramel butter to cool, but let it be warm when I mixed the flour! You know like
making One Bowl Choc Cake where you add boiled water!...will try that next time! Anyway,
here's the recipe that I got from Mat Gebu !
Ingredients
110 sugar
120ml water
30g butter
3 eggs, size A
80g condensed milk
90g plain flour, APF, sift with 1 1/4 tsp baking soda
Method
1. Make caramel by heating sugar until amber colour, when it started to bubble, turn off heat. I
love using a heavy base pan for the heat....slowly add water, it will splatter. Add butter, leave to
cool this mixture.
2.Beat eggs till thick and pale, add condensed milk and fold in flour...you don't want to overbeat
at this stage or you'll get a hard cake! You would have overworked the protein in the flour!
3. Pour in greased baking tins (owh I can't wait for my bundt pans to arrive..ordered from
Amazon!), let the batter rest for 3 hours (in which time I made Nutella cupcakes....which Hajar
and Muhammad had for supper!).
4.Preheat oven at 170C, bake for about 20 minutes.
You know, this traditional kuehs were easy to make, but you really have to get the techniques
right! Anyway, I had one for breakfast this morning, and the taste was awesome! Tqs Mat Gebu
for this recipe!
...and here's some macarons I deleivered yesterday!

Ingredients
1 cup APF
3/4 cups water
1/2 cup fresh milk, I used evaporated milk, didn't have any fresh milk at that time
2-3 drops yellow colouring
1 egg
3 tbsp melted butter or olive oil, I used butter
pinch of salt
Method
Using a blender I blitz all the ingredients together, and started my kirai mengirai!
Tqs Mat Gebu for this recipe. Now I can say that I like Roti Jala, as so far I have never been
satisfied with those that I bought. And I must add that making this kueh tradisional is not easy. I
had to tweak the consistency of the batter by adding a bit more water...and at the end of the
whole session, my kitchen tops were full of those dots from the batter! Haha, but it was well
worth making especially when having them with Chicken Curry!

Ingredients
Crust
190g flour
40g caster sugar
1/4 tsp salt
120g butter, from the fridge and chopped
1 yolk
Filling
5 green apples, I used Granny Smith, peeled , cored and sliced
2 tbsp butter
100g sugar
40g raisins
1/2 tsp cinnamon powder
2 tbsp plain flour
Crumble
150g plain flour
40g sugar
1/4 tsp salt
75g butter
Method
Crust
Using my hands, I mixed the sugar, salt and flour together. Rub butter with this flour mixture
until they resemble bread crumbs, add yolk and lighly knead. Please do not overwork the batter,
we are not making roti canai here, ya! Then, I pressed the dough into the tart pan...leanrt this
from Saf...and don't worry if they look like they were going to fall apart when baked, they won't!
Chill for 30 mins, set your oven at 180C.
Filling
In a large bowl mix all the ingredients together, set aside.
Crumble
Mix flour, sugar and salt together. Add the chopped butter and rub with the flour mixture until
they resemble crumbs.
Putting together
Spread the filling mixture in the tart pan, and spread the crumble on top. Bake for about 30
minutes or when you see bubbles coming out from the crumble or the sides of the pan.
Hajar had a portion that I placed in ramekins last night, and I had mine for breakfast this
morning. It was absolutely divine, I loved it! Tqs Rima for this recipe!
