Dear Readers,
I know that this site has been neglected for quiet a long time now. Sorry for this but I’m so tied up with my work thus I never got the chance to post an update hence I made a thought of closing this foodblog.The only thing that keeps me from doing it is your positive feedbacks. Thus I decided to go on food blogging once in awhile when time permits. I hope you understand. (more…)
I was so depressed after my birthday party last March. I felt insecured after seeing my old friends still slim and sexy, while I am weighing double to their weight. So, soonest they left…I started having a diet. Diva Jing sent me a copy of her diet plan she got somewhere, this Weight Loss Diet program was developed in conjunction with a grant from the US Department of Agriculture and the Food and Drug Administration.
My agony started with Day 1, the meal plan was consisted of all kinds of fruits except banana. I survived the first half of the day with ease. Later in the afternoon, I started imagining food while eating apple I dusted with cinnamon. Whoa, the scent of cinnamon reminds me the tasty cinnamon rolls. Crazy as I am, I turned on my pc and started searching for the recipe. Yes I know I was on diet but see, the spirit is indeed willing but the flesh is weak. So I surrendered and baked this delicious sweet cinnamon rolls instead.
Wanna try it?
Hindi nga ba at nakasanayan nating kumain ng mainit na Pandesal sa atin tuwing umaga at kong minsan kahit sa Miryenda? I myself is a Pandesal lover, natigil lang ito ng ako ay lumabas ng bansa. Nakakatikim lang ulit kapag umuuwi. Since inspired ulit akong magluto at mag bake lately, I thought why not try baking Pandesal as well? I searched the net for the recipe and found several kinds. This recipe I’m posting is the one I frequently bake dahil it taste really close to the Pandesal I remember. I got this recipe from Rezipezaar contributed by Najwa.
I had been trying to bake chocolate cake with that creamy chocolate frosting like the one I’ve tasted in Davao. But unfortunately, I never succeed. So last Friday, I “combed†the whole web to find for the frosting recipe again. There were more than a hundreds of recipes I found but selected only two. The first one I made end up in the trash bin and the second was a success. Wow, I finally got the right mixture of creamy oh so creamy chocolate frosting.
My husband who came in the kitchen later was shaking his head as he saw the kids faces smeared with chocolate cream. My chocolate monsters had great fun eating the leftovers with their fingers.
To chocolate lovers like me, I’m going to share to you both chocolate chiffon cake and frosting recipe. By the way, this delicious chocolate chiffon cake recipe uses cocoa powder instead of melted chocolate to give it its wonderful taste. Please make sure to use cake flour for this cake.
I unfortunately forgot to save the link of the author, that means I also can’t add her name.
Tiramisu is one of the cake that I love to eat. There is no doubt, Tiramisu is the popular Italian dessert…known worldwide. No wonder, it is sooo delicious! I usually bake this on special occassions, and family gatherings. I simply want to serve something different than the usual or typical german cake.Take note, this cake is not for young kids due to Amaretto. The alcohol amount is not much but I’d rather warn you upfront :). The recipe also contains fresh eggs, so I advice you to consume the cake at the same day you bake it or keep the rest refrigerated.
Oh by the way, you need a pastry when baking this Tiramisu recipe. Since I am a lazy cook…I mostly buy a ready made one from the bakery. It makes the preparation time shorter, but just incase you are willing to bake the pastry yourself. (more…)
