Famous Amos Rip-offs. LOL

Chocolate Chip Cookies and Strawberry Chip Cookies.



Yesterday's Red Velvet Cupcakes project weren't enough for me. That didn't satisfy me, apparently. So today I did something much simpler - cookies! and of course, these are not Famous Amos cookies (God, why would anyone think that? Hahahahaha. Ignore me.). I wish they were as good and famous as famous amos though. LOLOL.

Strawberry Chip Cookie

Anyway, they are good. I love the texture. Love how it turned out. The chocolate chip ones are less crunchy, with a little bit of softness left in them - how I love my cookies to be. As for the strawberry chip ones, they're completely crunchy and somewhat sweeter.

Chocolate Chip Cookies. <3

Red Velvet Cupcakes

Baking satisfies me. <3

Chef John's Red Velvet Cupcakes.

Instead of cream cheese, I made buttercream frostings. (Note to self: Get hold of some cream cheese or find time to make some next time.) Those brown stuff on top are cocoa powder. Anyway, this gave me an idea. I could dust coffee powder on cupcakes next time.

Tasted nice(its sweet!).

Texture's right(slightly moist compared to normal cupcakes. And I personally like the slightly crunchy-get-stuck-in-your-teeth crust. Don't know if it's suppose to be like that,  but I like how it turned out. hehe).

Colour's right, according to the recipe and other references (But a little too much food colouring if you ask me).

Need more time to bake, dammit.

Was just thinking... wouldn't it be rather awesome to own a bakery? =)

Back On The Blog

Hello from UPM!

It's been a long time since I last blogged. Currently in the computer lab, supposedly doing amali. Supposedly.

Lecturer left. So yeah. =)

Finally, after a hectic 5 days of orientation, plus 3 days of running around the whole campus, attending classes and trying to settle my course registration problem, everything is fine now.

I've been to the Bangunan Pentadbiran, Bahagian Akademik sooo damn many times, the people there recognises me.

What to do, when you can't register for your course, as a freshmen, you're sure to freak out. Heck there are so many things to worry about! Classes to rush to, this weird registration problem that seemed almost impossible to solve in the beginning, etc.

But, everything's good now. Everything's fine. Everything's settled. Yay!

Will update again, soon. I hope.

I miss my family, Marcus, my babies(Haezal, Vhiskey, Callie). I miss sleeping WHENEVER I want. Miss baking tons of cupcakes. Miss staying up late WoW-ing with Marcus, Yong Shiang and CKK. Miss crocheting with mommy.

But at the same time, I'm enjoying my uni life. This is really a whole new experience for me, and I'm loving it.

Cupcakes, once again!

Fattening.

Final baking project before I head off to uni. I'm so gonna bake again when my next holiday arrives. I haven't had enough of baking. And I sorta regret not baking more often during my 9-months-long holiday.

Cupcakes taste awesome, as usual. (HAHAHA. SELF PRAISE - INTERNATIONAL DISGRACE. But it is good.) Buttercream frosting taste good, of course. What buttercream frosting don't taste good?

Decos are all spontaneous and random. Hope they don't spoil your appetite.

We're gonna eat these for breakfast!

Blueberry Clafoutis Attempt #2

In the oven~

I'll be heading off to university soon in 1.5days time. Don't know how I really feel.

Today is my baking day because I know when classes start, I probably wont have that much time for all these. I'm gonna miss baking.

Blueberry Clafoutis <3

This round, everything is better. 2 plug points burnt, which led me to think that it isn't me. It isn't the clafoutis as well. It's the plug point being too old. Anyway, texture and taste is awesome. Much much better than the last round. Taste wise, not that much difference except that it's sweeter(more sugar this time. muahaha.); texture wise, much softer and custard-y inside!

Gonna make cupcakes later in the afternoon. Grr.
