cookies

first time try baking cookies with cooking chocolate
didn't do it well tho..
hmmm..may try again next time
the challenging part is the chocolate
because it become hard fast so need to be quick when doing it
so here's the result of it.. this is chocolate almond cookies
before putting on chocolate
seem nice rite?
after putting it...
arghhh..so ugly..
de surface of it not smooth =(
due to not enough of chocolate,
this one is made after my mum went to buy de dark coloured chocolate
and this seems better than the previous one..
it's de same recipe


ok, now another recipe with chocolate
i've manage to take photos of the process of making
so here it goes...
1. Beat 125g butter and 60g icing sugar in a mixer until fluffy.
2. Add in 1 egg yolk and 1/2 tsp vanilla essence and mix well.
3. Add in 60g almond powder, 20g cornflour and 190g plain flour into mixture and mix together to form dough(as shown in below).
4.Place the dough between sheets of plastic and roll flat to a thin layer.
5. Stamp out the shape design of your choice of cookie cutter.
6. Leave it on the baking tray in line.
7. Bake in a preheated oven at 180'C for 15-20 minutes.
After bake it become a little bit bigger.
8. Let it cool well before putting chocolate.
9. You can either dip each cookie into the melted chocolate or (my way)-use a spoon to put the chocolate on each cookie. Then, leave to set and it's done.
This is my result of it.
my skill is still not so good tho
so the surface of the chocolate is not that nice
but it still taste nice..hehe

Well, that's for the first time "playing" with cooking chocolate..haha
hope i can make a better one next time =)

first of a new year

I realised I haven't been writing anything since we have said goodbye to 2011 and welcome 2012, so here's a post to start off for the new year of 2012.

"For every pieces of memories in 2011, it will always be a memory; 
Doesn't matter sad or happy , life goes on as it needs to be.
Be strong to accept challenges and live our life to the fullest with no regrets.
Appreciate everything that you have or happens in your life,
do not blame anyone as it was meant to be this way,
everything happens for a reason that you will only realise later."

A little quote written by myself  =)

There are surely ups and downs in our life.
I'm happy to be able to share my ups with my friends, and
I'm grateful to have friends who listen to me and cheer me up when I'm down.
One of the precious gift given by God was you guys, my friends!
I'm happy that you guys happens to be in my life.
You know who you are. ^^

Well, for the new start
I wish 2012 will be a great dragon year to everyone!
Hope that it wont be the end of the world like what is shown in the movie 2012 @.@
Please don't happen so soon.
I still have a lot of things haven't done,
so many places haven't go T.T

so 2012 will be: 
a year that I'm graduating;
a year that I end my studies life; 
a year that I say hello to working life;
a year that I go travelling with my friend;
a year to shop for more formal clothes;
a year that I'm turning to double 2;
a year to be more mature; and
a year of new memories!
exciting
craziness
happiness
unforgettable
all in the year 2012
