Piped Cookies

This uses the same recipe as the swirl cookies..  except i piped the dough into flowers.. not as nice as i expected it to be.. the swirl pattern looks nicer..

swirl - 1M tip
flower - 2D tip

Swirl Biscuits

Recipe adapted from: http://iambaker.net/rose-neapolitan-spritz-cookies/

I know it looks nothing like the original but I'll try piping with a 2D tip next time.. hopefully I'll be able to get the same pretty rose shape!

Actually the biscuit tasted better after it turned browner.. the baked pink cookies you see in the pictures above, i felt were slightly undone.. so i popped them into the oven again for another 5 mins till they turn slightly tanned (last 2 pictures).. it tasted better though not as visually appealing as before..

Ombre Cheesecake

wanted to make a rainbow cheesecake but i didn't have enough cream cheese AND my mould wasn't high enough! so i decided to do ombre instead.. this would look nice if we garnish with cranberries or a strawberry but i had neither so i left it as it is..

i'm loving the colour gradient!!

Fudgy Chocolate Brownies

took me about 8 hours in the kitchen on x'mas to bake 5 batches of fudgy chocolate brownies! as i knew i was going to bake so many batches, i didn't add nuts to the mixture to reduce the amount of work that needed to be done.. to be honest, it was getting a little "painful" when i was baking the last 2 batches.. u see, i only have one 9" square cake tray.. and after each batch, i had to let it cool on a metal rack for a while (preferably for at least an hour or more) before removing the brownie and storing it in the fridge.. and my fridge is quite full so after each batch of brownie more or less hardened, i cut and packed it in the plastic bags and put them back in the fridge again..

then on sat morning, i packed them all in the paper bags with heart prints that i got from daiso.. this is my favourite part of it all i guess.. packing the stuff and making them pretty before sending them off.. :)

wanted to pack them in the same deco as i did for my previous posts but couldn't find the same materials.. :\

hope the kids like them!

Baked Fish

bought a ready-made sauce from cold storage.. layered 4 fish fillets in a loaf tin, added the sauce, some carrots and celery and baked it in an oven toaster for at least half an hour.. added some lime zest over the top so it looks nicer in picture :P
