CNY Cookies

I'm back again. After quit my job last month, I've been busy with kids during the end of the school holidays and busy baking cookies as the CNY approaching. But now, I seems like miss my career maybe have been used to working all the time. So now i try to occupy myself to cook and bake more often but at the same time hopefully will get some part time offer from previous company. Well, after stop for a month of baking, i started to bake pineapple cookies last week which was quite tiring as my son needs my attention too. Maybe age catching up as no longer can do multi-tasking work :OP.

There is no proper recipe, I bought the pineapple cookie mix and the green pea mix from baking supplies shop. What i need to do just added butter, egg yolks for pineapple and oil for green pea.

Choc Chip with Cornflakes Cookie

I have been lazy posted photos in my blog last few weeks..Now i'm back. I had leftover cornflakes and decided to bake with Choc Chip Cookies as a Raya gift for my Arabian neighbour. According to her, she loves this cookie. :OP.

You can refer the recipe from my previous post Choc Chip with cornflakes cookie.

Prawn Crackers (AGAIN)

I fried prawn crackers again for my mother in law. This time is bigger size until cannot fit the basin which i have to used 2.

After eating too many fried stuff, i think of cooling "Guai Lin Gao". I got 2 packets left in the fridge and decided to boil it. I gave some bowls to my son's nanny and my neighbour. Very "laku" maybe lots of people is getting heaty :o)

Fried Arrowhead Chips

This is my first attempt of frying "Nga Ku". This year of CNY, i suddenly have a mood to fry crackers "har bian" and "nga ku". Emmm... i think i gotta give up not going to do it again next year as i found that the process of peeling and slicing part of Nga Ku are wasting of time. Perhaps, my slice blade not sharp enough which i had to used knife to cut it thinly. Secondly, I gotta re-fry again some of the thick Nga Ku as it is not crunchy but still taste nice. Unlike what i refer to Wendy's blog, her Nga Ku nicely cut and fried. :o(

I guessed i didn't fry until the bubbles totally gone and the heat might be high. One more thing, i think PATIENT quite important which i don't have. :oP

Pineapple Cookies

When i looked at blogger posted their picture, i feel hesitate to post mine. Must really grab one camera, cannot use handphone anymore :oP.

I always like to buy the pineapple mix flour and jam from this bakery shop at Taman Pertama. It was so easy as i just need to add butter, egg yolks and vanilla essence with the flour that it is. The pineapple jam suit my taste as it is homemade. The cookies really melted in my mouth. I know the egg wash part quite messy cos i was in a hurry to pick up my son :oP.

Can you see the middle one, i i missed out that part for glazing.

Prawn Crackers

I like to eat prawn crackers or fried and crispy stuff. I bought the raw crackers from wet market. The smaller pieces sell RM15 and bigger one RM20. This is my first time to fried prawn crackers especially for this year CNY. For the past CNY, my mom in law will fried the crackers for me but this time i will do for her as she has not been well since last two weeks. Now i know it is not easy stand near the hot wok and fry those stuff.
My daugh complaint that i smell like McD, actually she was not well and was lying on the mattress. I quickly went to take shower :oP

CNY Almond Slice Cookies

I'm submitting this recipe to Aspiring Bakers #3 My Favourite CNY Cookies

I have been wanted to bake quite some times but quite busy lately. I have book mark some recipe but when i want to bake that time lack of ingredient at home and i lazy to go out and buy so have been delayed till now. Today I was on emergency leave, i grab an hour to bake this cookies while my gal is having a nap.

I got the recipe from this book "The First Book of Baking for Beginners" by Carol with step by step provided. I will try to translate the recipe to English version as i don't know the "chinese pin yin".

Ingredients:

2 Egg whites

50gm Castor sugar (I found it too sweet, shall reduce)

1/8tsp Salt

40gm Cake flour (Sift)

25gm Unsalted butter (Melted)

100gm Almond Slices

Method:

1. Add castor sugar, salt into egg whites until mixed well together.

2. Add sifted flour into batter (1) and mixed well

3. Pour in melted butter into batter (2)

4. Lastly, add the almond slices into batter (3) and fold gently in order not to break the almonds

5. Wrap the batter with cling wrap and keep in the fridge for 30 mins

6. Take out the batter from fridge, use big spoon to scoop the batter and place it into baking tray. Make sure the batter is far away from each other.

7. Dip some water into your fingers tip (wet fingers easy to workout on the batter smoothly) and drag the batter on the baking tray to a larger pieces.

8. Preheated 150C and bake for 12mins. Once the cookies turn brown, reduce the temp to 130C and bake again for 6-7mins until golden brown (Depends on your oven temperature). I have a small oven so my baking time take longer.

I noticed that now people sell cookies for RM25 for small bottle and RM35 for big one which is quite expensive. I've been started to bake my own CNY cookies last year.
