Kek Lapis Haw Flakes

yea....jadi gak kek lapis nih.... haw flakes....satu bungkus ada 10 rolls. satu roll ada 15 duit-duit. rasanye dulu2 ada 20 tu....he he he...sebab kertas gulungan tu macam terlebih je. beli kat Giant RM0.99 satu bungkus. sedap buah nih...masam2 manis... Rupa-rupanye kek nih pakai banyaklah bahan...dulu pernah gak cuba. resepi tu pakai tepung gandum biasa je...terbaru cari kat internet....rata2 semua guna biskut marie. ada biskut marie saje. ada biskut marie dan tepung, tapi tepung special, tepung Hong Kong. tepung Hong kong ni rasa nye tepung paling halus dan paling putih (highly bleached flour) dan kurang protein/gluten. tepung ni orang cina guna buat pau. tak jumpa tepung ni so guna je tepung Superfine. kek lapis selalu nye manis....kalau buat sendiri..so boleh control lah tahap manis tuh... semua resepi pakai sweet condensed milk dan gula. ada juga tambah kaya...
...dan bahan yang ini tak tau pun ada dalam kek lapis...Horlicks...mesti untuk menyedapkan kek tuh lagi...
Bahan-bahan.
(ini saya ambil dari beberapa entry di internet. saya dah ubah2 untuk menyenangkan saya. tak pasti hasil nye memuaskan atau tidak. komen kat bawah sekali.)

A.
500 gram butter
1/2 cup castor sugar
1 tin condensed mik (lebih kurang 1 1/2 cups)
1/2 cup kaya
-beat butter and sugar until creamy. add in condensed milk and kaya. beat well.
B.
10 eggs, grade A
300 grams dry ingredients ( can be a mix of flour, biscuit marie, Horlics, or nestum).
- beat eggs until fluffy. add in the dry ingredients. mix well.

note**:
-100 gram biscuit marie, finely ground. 
-100 gram superfine flour
-100 gram Horlicks
 
(** ...should maintain 300 grams inorder to get a more wet/moist cake.)
.

Add in A to B. mix well.
tips. panaskan bekas kek dulu. so bila letak batter tuh...dia senang je cair...so batter tuh cantek je rata ....gunalah senduk sebagai penyukat...so lapisnye lebihkurang sama tebal nanti...
i tak nak letak perwarna...nak original gituh...
.
lapisan kedua dan seterusnye...batter tu akan cair sendiri disebabkan kepanasan dari kek itu sendiri...so senang nak ratakan nye.....
.
tips:
sebelum letak batter, tekan-tekan kek tu untuk mengeluarkan air bubble....tekan lah dengan penekan kek lapis (khas). kalau tak ada, kena creative...he he he. kalau tak tekan...bila potong ada lubang-lubang....kalau masuk pertandingan, kena potong markah ni...
lagi satu, ada yang sapu butter cair dulu. kenapa ya ...untuk lagi sedap kot. ini tak buat. lupa.
(banyak sangat steps tu...)
..lapis-lapiskan lah dengan haw flakes tuh....every lapis nak letak pun ok...lagi sedap kek tu...
tapi haw flakes kena banyak lah...mungkin 4, 5 bungkus...he he he...
i letak 3 bungkus....the first 3 layers letak haw flakes...lepas tu...hairan kenapa tinggal sikit je haw flakes tu...so lepas tu altenate layer letak haw flakes....
suggestions: letak every layer...sedap lagi.
.
resepi ni banyak. tak boleh guna 8x8. ini i guna 8x8 dan 3x8.
64 + 24 = 88. kena guna 9x9 = 81 (tebal) atau 10x10 (kurang tebal)....ok kot....
.
oven ni analog. bila set grill at 175...hitam kejap je...dalam 1 minit.
bila set 150, 10 minutes tak masak-masak. so set kat 160..... masalahnye oven ni..setting grill nih sensitivelah pulak...letak 160...tak2 masak-masak...pusing sikit...kejap je...dah brown...so jadinye penat tengok kek ....... he he he....
1st layer...normal fan oven at 175 degree celsius for 15 minutes
subsequent layer, grill heat 160++ degree celsius for 10 minutes or less.
last layer ...normal fan oven at 175 degree celsius for 15 minutes.
.
alhamdulillah jadi gak.
baunye sungguh menyelerakan...wangi....
rasanye ...sungguh sedap....kalau banyak haw flakes lagi bagus....
moist....moist gak....tapi tak macam yang pernah rasa.... ada yang lagi basah....
.
masa yang di ambil untuk bakar : 3 jam....ha ha ha....
tahap kesukaran: tak sukar...tapi leceh....
waktu terbaik untuk masak: buat masa betul-betul rajin je...... untuk special event gitu....simpan resepi ini untuk reference....

Peanut Butter Cookies- THC


...he he he...nak tiru macam satu blog tuh.... pegang macam tuh....itu tangan Aqilah.

i saw this tv show Take Home Chef....and dia buat cookies tu simple sangat.... dia pakai scoop icecream..so besar gak cookies tu sebesar satu tapak tangan ...and bila di patahkan...chocolate chunk tu nampak melted...ish ish..ish...

nak cuba ni...nak pakai chocolate apa ya tu?

cari under TLC.com/chef tak jumpa..so goggle lah...dapat gak under different entity . the link http://www.thefabulousbakergirl.com/1/post/2009/11/peanut-butter-chocolate-chip-cookies.html
peanut butter... one cup = 280 grams....
...cookies and coffee...what a pair...
so nak simpan resepi tu disini so boleh buat reference.

 ________________________________________
 A.
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup of brown sugar (packed)
1 stick of butter = 1/2 cup butter ( stick is used in US only)
.... mix baking soda, brown sugar and butter until creamy.

B.
1 egg
1 cup chunky peanut butter
1/4 cup of honey
.....add the egg. then add peanut butter and honey. mix well.

C.
1 1/2 cups flour
1 bar of chocolate (about 2 cups of chocolate pieces)
....then add flour and chocolate pieces/chunk. fold all together.
________________________________________
.
ha ...dah buat dah... besar punya.... .

chocolate yang ada dalam stock....Cadbury Bournville Dark Chocolate....so pakai je nih...
i used 2 bar.
once butter and sugar became creamy add egg, peanut butter and honey....
then add flour...
and folded in chocolate chunk....
use the icecream scoop...easier!
got to flatten mine as it does not spread out well like Curtis.....

i baked less than 15 minutes, and made 18 cookies.
so the cookies were soft and chewy, not crispy.
the chocolate melt but not the way i wanted.....to try next time with a different chocolate bar.
it has the peanut butter smell, first taste was sweet then immediately you know it was honey....nice. ...then...you bite on the melted dark chocolate ... yum....at the end of your bites then only you can taste the saltines from the peanut butter.... recipe recommended... .

Bread donut

this doughnut recipe is from Nigella...
http://www.nigella.com/recipes/view/doughnut-french-toast-71

i saw in the tv the other day...
it is white bread (cut thick), make french toast, coated the bread like a sugared doughnut...and drizzle strawberry sauce...

i made one just now.
purposely bought a loaf of white bread last night to try this recipe. should have bought two loaves. to me it's taste is just like donut.....the popular soft donut....soft and yummy.

thinking earlier to try chuck's donut....but this bread donut is sufficient to handle the craving attack.... he he he... next time to capture the picture.... .. .....
