Blueberry muffins

Here are the very belated photos i've promised!

My vanilla-blueberry muffins..tasted more like cupcakes than muffins though!

Added some raisins as fillings internally.

Muffins

i had cravings for Muffins since last week. Wanted to bake some last weekend to curb my cravings, but i ran out of flour! :(

finally, i bought my flour and a can of peach.. and tadaa!!!

See the slices of peaches and bananas? yummy,

there were more than enough for me to curb my cravings, and the banana ones are really fragrant! Even the peach muffins smell of bananas.

On a side note, i've baked pizza again last weekend for my darling.. i love watching him enjoying the pizzas after a tiring day at work :P (I apologise for the lousy picture due to my very-outdated-and-should-be-in-museum-handphone).

I also cooked spaghetti carbonara for the first time using Martha Steward's recipe. They taste really good! My darling finished every single strand of them and the mushroom soup, and ended up with a bloated stomach! hahaha

Recipe adopted from MarthaStewart.com

Ingredients
(Serves 6)

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
10 ounces pancetta, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 pound spaghetti
1 cup heavy cream, plus more if needed
4 large egg yolks
2 cups grated (about 5 ounces) Parmesan cheese, plus more for garnish
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and pancetta to skillet, and cook until the pancetta is browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove skillet from heat, and keep warm.

Cook spaghetti in boiling water until al dente, about 8 minutes. While spaghetti is cooking, whisk cream, egg yolks, Parmesan, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl until combined. Drain pasta, and return to saucepan. Immediately stir in egg-and-cheese mixture until well combined. Add warm pancetta and fat from pan. Toss well. Thin sauce with additional cream, if necessary.

Serve immediately, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese.

Blueberry & peach muffins!

A basket full of muffins..

A long baking day!

I tried quite a few new recipes today.. and since there is some leftover durians sitting in my fridge, i tot, what the! Might as well utilise them!

so... here it is..

while my puffs are in the oven! (I've decided to name the puffs that buttercup baked as power-puffs! haha!)

i also baked chocolate cupcakes (again!) cos' i had some remaining batter left from the previous bake. also, i tried out strawberry yoghurt muffins.. and.. blur me, forgot to take pictures of my muffins after they are baked.. i only haf them before entering the oven!

this is a chocolate banana cake i've baked the other day.. all my backlogs. heh. it's frosted with chocolate on top, and with banana fillings with chocolate cream in between the cake layers. my first attempt at bigger cakes! (the cut out portions are eaten by my boy.. my guinea pig hehehe)

and this is yummy chocolate lava cake. as the name suggest, lava cake, means that the chocolate will flow out like lava after you bite into it! look like the chocolate oozing out (i know it's a lousy pic.. pardon me.) my boy loves this, and keeps pestering me for more!

Blueberry orange muffins & Chocolate Lava cake

knocked off on time today.. been working OT for past 2 days, decided to have a break.

Saw a recipe for lava cake yesterday, and have been thinking of baking it all nite long! sooo.. here i come! haha.



a very simple recipe, which yields delicious lava cake. the key is, do not overbake it otherwise the lava will not flow! (which sadly, happened to my cakes).

nonetheless, my boy says that it taste good, especially when warm + ice cream! hehe.



made 2 dozens of blueberry orange muffins.. i love this recipe. it's really good.. *yummy*
