Peanut butter Nutella cookies
The Nutella baking continues. This time, I’ve decided to mix two of my favourite spreads together – peanut butter and Nutella. Best to use commercial peanut butter such as Krafts or Skippy as they are less oily. I’ve made quite a number of peanut butter cookies before and I usually cream both peanut butter and butter together. This time, I’ve substituted the butter for...

Vegan banana nut bar
Firstly, I am not vegan – don’t think I’ll ever become one because I love my meats. I decided to make these vegan nut bars today because I am doing a snack-prep for my frisbee competition this weekend. The last competition I had, I ate so much unhealthy snacks in between the games that I felt quite sick. So this time, I decided to...

Fresh strawberries cupcakes
Strawberries are one of my favourite fruits and I love it when they are in season. There are just so many things you can do with strawberries and they make good “accessories” for food styling too. I’ve never been a fan of frosting; partly because I find it too sweet and also messy when it comes to using the piping bag. However, my latest...

Fudgy chocolate brownie
Brownies are one of my favourite desserts to make. Firstly, they are great for any occasions. Secondly, they make great tray bakes; cut them up into bite size pieces and they would be gone in no time. Lastly, they are easy to make – it’s almost foolproof and they taste delicious. I adapted this recipe from BBC good food and one thing I like...

Apple crumble
Apples are one of my least favourite fruits. For some strange reason, I hate the texture of it and I get goosebumps when I hear the crunching of the apple – weird, I know. However, since apples are in season now, I decided to give a go at an apple dessert. I had a hard time deciding between an apple pie or an apple crumble...

Salted caramel chocolate slice
Tray bakes are one of my favourite desserts to make. These bite sized slices are perfect for any occasion. I made this salted caramel chocolate slice specially for ANZAC day. It’s my own twist to spice up the traditional ANZAC day cookie. For the base, I used my ANZAC day cookie recipe and spread it across a square pan. The good thing about making...

Roasted black sesame cookies
I was doing my grocery shopping in Singapore when I came across roasted black sesame powder and I grabbed it instantly. I love anything that has black sesame in it – black sesame dumplings, buns etc. This time, I decided to adapt my almond cookie recipe and use black sesame instead. Like my almond cookie recipe, this does not require butter or eggs. It uses...

Lemon zest almond pretzels
The insane baking continues. The amount of cookies that I’ve been churning out everyday is scary. Think my family and friends are going to get very tired of being my guinea pigs soon. So my new recipe for the day – Almond lemon zest pretzels. If you want to test someone’s taste palate, let them try this cookie. So far the response I’ve got...

The ultimate banana bread
I must admit, I have an obsession for banana breads. I had an experiment on the different kinds of methods for making banana bread (click here to read more about the battle of the banana bread) but nothing beats this recipe by Curtis Stone. It is now my go-to recipe for banana breads. One thing to note about banana bread – the more ripe the...

Tiramisu
I got this recipe off from my friend who made one of the best tiramisu I’ve ever had. It was my first time making Tiramisu and it was surprisingly easy and almost fool-proof. The tiramisu tasted so good that I made two batches (one in a tray and the other in wine glasses) because I knew that it would be a hit at the...
