Orange Choc Chips Cupcakes




I told E that I was thinking of baking a cake...and he said why dont you bake a choc chips cake. So... in less than 20 mins this orange choc chips cupcakes were in the oven.

Taste so good that I think this will be my #1 recipe for orange cake. I modified the recipe .... :)

Merry Christmas

I cant wait for Christmas.... coz I love to see the joy and happiness in the kids when they open their Christmas presents :)


Swiss Roll

Goodness there are so many types of recipe for swiss roll...some with egg, without egg, with flour, without flour, oil or butter and the method varies.

Yammie gave me a piece of chocolate swiss roll bought from Ipoh famous swiss roll shop - JJ Cakes & Swiss Rolls. http://www.j2kfm.com/jj-cakes-swiss-rolls-ipoh/
It is simply the best! I feel like making a trip to Ipoh just for this... it will be worth it.

So begin lah my journey looking for a recipe to match JJ...heheheheh sometimes I just got nothing better to do. Of coz tak boleh lawan lah... I am just a baker who bakes to de-stress.

I cant remember where I got this recipe from... most probably from Agnes I can Bake recipe book. Taste good .... folks in Tg Bungah like it.

Curry Fish Head

I had the best curry fish head ever.... and have been eating it since Friday.... yes going to be the 3rd day now.

Got to ask Fazie for the recipe and most importantly the method.

Carrot Cake?

Carrot cake oh carrot cake ... I have been thinking of you...ever since I was given the worst ever carrot cake last year. At that time, I felt that I could baked a better cake even though I have not baked one before.
Hmmmm maybe Christmas....

Sweet Dough Bun


Noticed that I had a few bottles of yeast in the freezer and the only way I know of using it is ... make bread :)
This time I am slightly more adventurous. Made a few variations - sausage bun, garlic bun and garlic & ham bun.

Btw, I made it from hand and not from some bread maker :)

RVC

RVC.... name too long lah... Red Velvet Cake. Most folks dont know about this cake. I have seen the recipes.... saw a lot of postings on it but never thought of baking one until SIL requested for one. She will be back next week for a wedding.... and I will be baking this for Ry and Dad's birthday.
So.... I got to try out the recipe first....and I baked this on Wednesday. Got the recipe from http://www.joyofbaking.com/RedVelvetCake.html

I like it without the frosting (as usual) but most people like it with the frosting. My colleagues asked me...eh what cake is this again? red apa? heheheh that was funny. Even aunty Emily whom I considered as Queen of baking pun tak pernah dengar. Rating I got for this cake is 3.5/5. So boleh lah. Thanks to joy of baking.
I think the red can be brighter.... which means I got to reduce the cocoa powder (I tambah lebih sikit from the recipe).

I like it :).

 Ryan was asking me...what is this mummy? A red cake!

Choc Yoghurt Butter Cake

f
The original recipe called for blueberry to top the cake and over here we dont have fresh blueberry, I blended in some choc like baking a marble cake. Will be baking more of this.
