Dear Chibi,

This week I wanted to move away from baking and have a go at making a nice warm soup! Jacky wanted Potato and Leek Soup so I went with that (I’ve never had it before so I’m just gonna assume it tastes good ;D) This time Jacky helped me get the potato, leek and onions while I got the rest of the ingredients. I also borrowed his blender.

Dear Chibi,

In this week’s episode, I tried to make Chocolate Brownies following this recipe! The method and ingredients is similar to Rocky Road except it’s baked in the oven like my Muffins! Again, I decided to bake two batches, one on Saturday (for guinea pig testing) and hopefully a better one on Sunday.

Here’s my end result:

Mmm…juicy and gooey ~ Served with Cookies & Cream ice-cream :D

Dear Chibi,

This weekend I decided to try baking muffins! It proved to be more challenging than I thought. I made a batch of 12 on Saturday which turned out pretty disappointing. The muffins were burnt on the bottom and all around the edges. The shape was also pretty weird. About half of it end up going to waste. After evaluating what could have possibly gone wrong (there were several factors) I was determined to make a better batch the next day.

This morning I headed back to Woolies to find some muffin paper cups. On Thursday night I had bought the wrongs ones (they were for cupcakes), so I thought I could just do without the paper. Oh how wrong I was~ XD

This is the end result of my Macadamia, white chocolate and raspberry muffins!

mmmmm! I’m really happy with how these came out today :D After the second batch, I had a few more left over for a third batch. The third batch was the best :D
