Financiers
Tried another recipe from the so-far-foolproofed joyofbaking.com as I've gt leftovers egg whites from amatuer (failed) making of homemade ice cream.
Recipe from here.
As what my photos shows, I did not use fresh berries to decorate the financiers. Other than that, I followed the recipe (there's a video) quite closely. And I did not use cheesecloth or any other strainer to strain the melted butter away from the brown bits. Just pour accordingly to gut feel - Jamie Oliver style.
This is best eaten fresh & warm from the oven.

Custard Cookies
Nowadays I'm looking for recipes to clear out the stuffs I had in the fridge so that I can maximize whatever I have and minimize wastage of food.
And honestly, I think the blog is going to turn into a baking blog soon. ha!
Recipe from here.
Beware, it is quite a oily recipe though. 250g of butter.. I find it easier to use hands to roll the dough into balls rather than using spoons etc. But then you will end up with very oily hands. And you have to be gentle with it. Got to roll fast else it will not form a ball and it will stick to your hands.
Enjoy!

Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookie
It's Christmas time! What's better than to bake some cookies for colleagues and friends. Other than sharing my baked goods with people, it is good to give them away as "Christmas gifts" when you don't know what to get for them for Christmas. No headaches to what to get!
Usually baking cookies is quite a chore. Especially cookies that contains butter as it makes washing very troublesome.
My colleagues had good raves for the cookies. 1 even enquire if he can order with me. Wah. Milestone. Someone ACTUALLY want to order my cookies.
So happy.
Anyone want order? Shall be going to buy my ingredients tomorrow.
Recipe adapted here
115g butter
115g light brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla essence/extract
150g self-raising flour
75g rolled oats
100g chocolate chips
100g white chocolate chunks, optional
directions :
1. cream butter & sugar in a bowl until pale and fluffy. add in egg and vanilla essence/extract.
2. sift flour over the mixture and fold in lightly with a metal spoon. then add oats, choc chips and white chocolate and stir well to combine.
3. drop heaped spoonfuls of mixture onto non-stick baking sheet, leaving space for spreading.
4. bake in a preheated oven of 170 deg c for 15-20 mins until golden brown.
5. leave on to cool 2-3 mins before removing from baking sheet and let cool completely before storing in air-tight container.
The cookies doesn't really expand much during baking, so the size of the dough dropped onto the baking sheet will pretty much be the resulted size.
