White Chocolate Cake

i wanted to try this recipe for so long after viewed the Anna Olson TV program. at last managed to make this. emak was having kenduri ....so baked the cake and decorated at emak's place.
 the cake has white chocolate. the icing also has white chocolate. i like the cake but neet to do some adjustment next time when making one again. may be next time i want to add some milk to thin down the icing... maybe next time to reduce sugar in the cake ..as it is too sweet for me...
then deco with M&M and Cadbury sliced Chocolate bar.
 it was happened that Thoriq birthday was in July.....so bolehlah kek ni jadi kek birthday Thoriq tu...he he he

Thoriq is four now. Sebelah tuh Aronib...tengok kek Moist Chocolate (yang selalu buat tuh German Chocolate Cake).

this cake recipe is from Anna Olson. (i skipped the berry part). can go here for more details.... http://www.lifestylefood.com.au/recipes/9003/white-chocolate-berry-wedding-cake

for one recipe cake i make half of the icing only....and it is enough.

Here are the outcome of the recipe.

i used 1 bar butter which is 250 gram. could it be because of that my batter was so soft? the additional 1/4 cups of almond ground still not able to help?
well...to avoid the cookies being flatten like below after cooking, i coverred rolled oats around . when baked, it can hold the  cookie shaped better.  taste wise, this recipe , produce a more crispier taste....because of the extra butter and the sweetness it has. overall - excellent. i have made this recipe few times.

sugar - 1/2 cup caster + 1 1/2 cups packed brown

flour - 2 3/4 cups (12 oz) (i want to add 1/2 cup(50 grams) of grounds almonds)

rising agent - 1 1/2 tsp bp + 1/2 tsp bs

Comments:

if you increase the sugar content, you can increase the flour content too.....and increase rising agent too...

(butter, egg, remains )

**some added 2 tbsp instant coffee to make the taste richer.
