Walnut Cake

The texture of the cake was really good this time round! it also "poofed" quite a bit in the oven until i thought batter was going to flow out of the mould! added chocolate rice this time round.. this really tastes yummy!

Egg Tarts

My very first attempt at making egg tarts...

B4 entering oven...


Entering oven...


DONE!


Got the recipe from the September 2011 issue of Simply Her magazine.. Looks easy enough and I had all the ingredients so without further thoughts, i went ahead to bake it..

This will probably be the last time i bake egg tarts.. why? because...
- i never liked to make pastries 'cos it's v time-consuming,
- it's tiring,
- i dun like to play around with dough...
- i dun like egg tarts. Period.

The recipe said it will yield 25 tarts.. i took that qty with a pinch of salt because the flour required was more than 1kg in total.. and guess what? in the end, i think i got about 60 tarts!!! and yes, i dun like egg tarts.. i never buy them unless i really really got the mood for it which is super rare.. well anyway, i gave 16 away, ate 3, sis ate 1, dad ate 1, mum ate 1 or 2.. and i still have many more...

before i forget, the pastry was a little tough.. but the taste of the egg was good.. first time baking and i thought i did ok.. could hv been better if i could tell when the egg part was cooked..

i think i still prefer baking cakes.. haha..

Agar Agar Fever







I'm into making agar agar now!! Finally after many attempts, I managed to get the texture right.. and thanks to my aunt for teaching me how to make the layers :)
