Okay! Here's another recipe dedication. This time it's for my colleague, Claudia.
Haha, she's been pestering and reminding me to make these cookies for her as she really loves them a lot, and I mean a lot.
Just so happen, I got cornflakes from NTUC(a local supermarket) last night while grocery shopping for my dinner. So I thought, why not bake 'em?
Andddddd! I baked these lovelies in the early morning of 6am. Reasons being that my cats has been trying to wake me up from 5am in the damn morning cos' they're hungry. oTL
So Claudia, Here's to you! <3~!
Cornflake Cookies
==================
190C
Baking time : 15 min
Ingredients:
-----------------------
150g Butter
150g Sugar
1 egg
2 teaspoon baking powder
200g Flour
drops of vanilla essence
Instructions:
------------------------
C.C-1: Cream Butter and Sugar together until light and fluffy
C.C-2: Add Vanilla essence and egg and mix well.
C.C-3: Fold in the flour and baking powder (the dough would be sticky)
C.C-4: Crush 100g of cornflakes and fold into the dough.
C.C-5: Line your baking sheets with parchment paper/baking paper
C.C-6: Roll bits of dough and coat them with excess crushed cornflakes and press them on the baking sheet.
C.C-7: Bake in a pre-heated over at 190C for 15 mins
C.C-8: Remove from oven and leave to cool completely.
It's that simple! I brought a ziplock-full of these lovelies for Claudia just today and She's one happy girl, literally! hahaha! If you don't like cornflakes in your cookies and only want them coating the cookies, just simply omit the adding of crushed cornflakes into the dough.
And oh, did I mention that you can use Nestum as well? It tastes as beautiful and yummy like these cornflake cookies!.
With Much love,
Sheila <3 XOXOXOXOXO

Pancakes for Breakfast! :B
Pancake Breakfast! This was one of the recipes that I've planned to 'complete'
Seriously, don't mind my oversized kiddy PJs, I know it looks really aloof.
Anywho, let's get started!
Ingredients:
190g all-purpose flour
10g white sugar
10g baking powder
6g salt
1 egg
45g melted butter
295ml milk
extra butter/oil for the pan
Instructions!:
P.C-1. Mix all the dry ingredients together
P.C-2. Add the wet ingredients and mix until smooth and lump free
P.C-3. Heat and oil your pan/skillet.
P.C-4. Spoon a ladle-full of batter onto the heated pan and cook until bubbles starts to burst at the surface
P.C-5. Once bubbles has burst at the surface, flip them over and cook them for another 2-3 minutes.
P.C-6. Serve on a plate with butter/honey/jam.
It's that easy! Took me about 20 minutes in total to get everything cooked and cleaned up. I love pancakes with honey! Natural sweetener, yum!
It's just too bad that there's no one else in the family to nom on them so I bought them to work as my snack. :B.
With much love,
Sheila <3 XOXOXOXO

microwave cookies
LO! it's another microwave recipe! LOL
I was really bored one night and went on to youtube to find random food recipes and all,
then I stumbled upon this microwave cookie recipe by Ochikeron, and I decided that I would try it out!
Ingredients:
----------------------
1/2cup = 125ml butter (softened) *100g (3.5oz.)
1/4cup = 62.5ml granulated sugar
1 egg
1cup = 250ml cake flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
Instructions:
-----------------------------
M.C-1. Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy
M.C-2. Beat in the egg and mix well.
M.C-3. Fold in the cake flour and baking powder.
M.C-4. Spoon or pipe your cookie dough onto small pieces of baking paper and pop them in the microwave, on high for 2-3 minutes.
!*! Always look at the cookies, as they burn easily !*!
M.C-5. After 203 minutes, remove from microwave and leave to cool completely!
THAT"S ALL! Hahaha! this recipe is dead easy and dead fast.
You can add chocolate chips or dried fruits in, anything to your preference.
Microwave cooking often cooks food from the inside out hence it is always wise to keep an eye on your food while it's spinning round and round in the microwave.
UPDATE NOTE!
I have actually planned out recipes to start/finish up week by week so I do hope I have the time to do those and update as much as I can.
With Much Love,
Sheila XOXOXOXOXO!

M.5 - Add melted butter and flour and fold into the batter
!.! Optional. For better looking madelienes, chill in the fridge for about 3o minutes to an hour!.!
M.6 - Spoon in the batter into a floured madeleine pan.
M.7 - Bake in a pre-heat oven at 180C for 12- 14 minutes.
M.8 - Remove and let it completely cool.
I actually didn't chill the batter before baking, that's why the top(bottom) of my madeleine are crackly and ugly.
Despite their appearances, they tasted really yummy! and it goes oh so well with any type of tea. *melts* I would sneak out one every night from the fridge and nom on them before going to bed. Fattening but oh so delicious!
With much love,
