Wedding Cake Disaster


Salam.. will share the story later...hmm kecewa kecewa...but alhamdulillah it was done on time..

1st February 2013.....entering the second month of 2013..subhanallah cepatnya masa berjalan!

Sambung cerita tertunggak..kek ni utk Ain ,anak my friend Yati, neighbour depan rumah, kawan baik dari kecik sampai sekarang, kawan sekelas masa darjah 1& 2, kawan main nyorok nyorok, main rounders, berenang dalam sawah, kolam itik!! Kawan tangkap belalang , panjat pokok jambu, tangkap ikan...hmmm panjang sungguh listingnya kalau nak di ceritakan!! Pengalaman paling seronok masa kecik kecik dulu.. Yati memang lebih daring dari saya..kalau part tangkap ikan ..dia berani tangkap ikan keli atau apa saja..saya ni penakut sikit..kalau depan mata ada belut atau ikan keli ,saya akan jerit minta tolong dia tangkapkan!! ha ha ha kelakar betul!! Tapi sesunguhnya kawan saya ni seorang SURVIVOR!.Dia berjaya membesar dan mendidik anak anak dengan sempurna walaupun banyak liku liku kehidupan yang dia harungi..I love you Yati!


Ok back to cerita 'Disaster' .. kek ni bagai dilanda gempa bumi...lari dari tapak asal..jadilah senget...
Asal nya memang nak cantum lapisan atas tu bila sampai kampung...tapi terfikir pulak ..what if..jalan jamm, atau terlewat sampai nanti x sempat pulak nak pasang yang setingkat lagi tu...so I just topped up the second 
cake. Dari Kelana Jaya sampai Melaka...lebih kurang 2 jam..memang banyak kereta sepanjang perjalanan sbb cuti panjang...Maulidur Rasul + Thaipusam. En Hubby bawa kereta punya lahhh laju..
sesekali tekan break mengejut... kek saya pun terkejut....ish ish ish.. 


The bottom is Chocolate Mud Cake filled with Strawberry Ganache, buttercream and marshmallow,
i follow resepi Paula Deen click here Missisippi Mud Cake.


And on top is Red Velvet Cake + Filling Chocolate ganache & buttercream, 
Cik Pengantin sebenarnya nak Rainbow Cake.. tapi disebab kan keadaan 'my little black oven' tu
yang dah kurang 'user friendly' kena lah kita switch kek lain... jangan marah ye Ain...nanti kalau panjang umur ..Birthday anak Ain nanti busu buatkan Rainbow Cake ye..;-))



Memang frust kalau kek yang kita buat jadi tak sempurna, nak present kat Tuan nya pun segan, Yati & Ain...minta maaf banyak banyak!! Walaupun rupa dah cacat sikit , I hope korang enjoy the cake yang memang I made especially for you using all the good quality ingredients!!


And these cupcakes ...pengiring Kek yg senget tu..Red Velvet & Chocolate Moist.
 Ain & Zuhair Selamat Pengantin Baru!


This one pun sempat buat sebelum balik Melaka..utk my emak..sbb  kalau balik kg dia mesti tanya
kau tak buat kek?.. kalau balik tangan kosong tu.. mmg serbasalah lah jadi nya..
Pineapple Upside Down Cake.
follow resepi Almond Butter Cake i posted before click here with a bit modification..
will share dalam post lain..
 x berapa cantik rupanya sbb lambat sangat keluarkan dari loyang..

ok I have to stop now...nak jemur kain lah..itu dan ini..it's KL public holiday..kat rumah mana ada holiday..kan.. Wasalam..

Chewy Fudgy Brownies

Salam dear all..

I wanted to share this great recipe which I have tried last weekend. The taste is up to my satisfactory, my kids love it and it's really worth trying...but as usual with a little bit modification.. he he..
 problem just..gambar tak cantik...of course laa guna camera handphone saja...
 puas laa edit..this is the best laa rasanya..iye lah nak edit pun x berapa expert.. 

Got the recipe from click here Thanks Aiko for sharing all the great recipes and tutorial.. your blog really inspires me!

I copy and paste the recipe again for my future reference...will sure repeat making this brownies again!
As I mentioned earlier I made some modification.. it's all in the PURPLE FONT.

1¼ cups all-purpose flourI
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons dark unsweetened cocoa powder   i used Van Houten 
11 ounces (311.7g) dark chocolate, coarsely chopped  i used Berryl's Dark Compound
1 cup (8 ouces) unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 teaspoon instant coffee powder   i used NESCAFE
1½ cups granulated sugar   i switched this to light brown sugar
½ cup packed light brown sugar    and this i  switched to granulated sugar
5 eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
i added  :
1/2 cup Chunky Peanut Butter
3/4 cups Chocolate Chips
1/4 cup roasted almond flakes, or nibs 


Here's how:
(1) Melt together butter, dark chocolate and coffee powder in a pan set over a saucepan with simmering water.
(2) Once melted turn off the heat and add white and brown sugar.
(3) Mix until completely combined. Bring the mixture to room temperature. 
(4) In the meantime, line your baking pan with Cut Rite or Parchment Paper. The book requires a 9x13 inches pan but I don't have one. The nearest was a 9x12. That should do :)
i used my 9 x 9 ..ok saja..
(5) In a medium sized bowl, combine flour, salt and cocoa powder. Sift or dry whisk and set aside.
(6) Once the chocolate mixture has cooled to room temperature. Add 3 eggs. Whisk until just combined, no streaks of eggs left. Then add the remaining 2 eggs. Add in the vanilla extract.
(7) Sprinkle the dry ingredients over the chocolate mixture. Fold using a spatula (do not use a whisk) only until combined.
(8) Spread evenly on the pan and bake for 30 minutes. Make sure to rotate the pan halfway through the baking time.Do not overmix and do not overbake. 
for no 8... I divided the mixture into half, spread evenly the first half  on the pan.Then
I sprinkle the Peanut Butter on top of the mixture....i used a teaspoon--scoop 1/2 teaspoon
and dropped it  on the mixture. Then spread the other 1/2 mixture on top of  it.
Sprinkle the chocolate chips and almod flakes.
**
For this trip..i hv to bake the Brownies for 45 minutes because 'My Little Black Oven' 
has started giving me problems...huu sedih..selalu buat layer cake ...buka dan
tutup buka tutup..now pintu oven i dah longgar.. kena letak lesung batu kat pintu tu...eii 
kesian.. ;-(
