Butter Cakes are my mum favourite. Did these twice over the weekends.

Recipe Source: Do What Like

Ingredients:

150g Butter
1 tbsp Corn Oil
110g  Castor Sugar
1/3 tsp salt
1/2 tsp vanilla paste or 1 tsp vanilla essence
3 eggs

140g cake flour
40g corn starch
1/3 tsp baking powder

3 - 5 tbsp milk

Method:

1. Mix cake flour, corn starch and baking powder together. Sieve twice into a large mixing bowl.
2. Cream butter, oil, sugar, vanilla and salt till pale and fluffy.
3. Beat in eggs one at time, beat well after each addition.
4. Add in the flour mixture and mix at low speed till well blended.
5. Stir in the whipping cream.
6. Pour batter into a lined loaf pan and bake at 180C for 35 - 45 minutes or till cooked. 

Notes:
After 10 - 12 minutes in the oven, remove it and make a length-wise cut on the surface of the batter with a knife so that the cake will "explode" nicely with a neat line in the middle.

Baguette

A baguette is a long thin load of French bread that is commonly made from basic lean dough.
It is distinguished by it's length and crisp crust.

This is my first time baking baguette, Not bad for first timer but still need to improve.

Normally I had Baguette with Tuna or Egg Mayonnaise or either Butter with Kaya. My family love to have it with curry.

These Palmiers are so easy to make. All you need are just 3 simple ingredients (Castor sugar, Puff Pastry & Melted Butter)

I make some minor changes to the recipes. Added minced onion, Italian herbs & Cheddar Cheese and brushed with egg wash. Overall taste was good and taste a bit like English version Roti Prata.

Blueberry Cheese Cake

Did this Blueberry Cheese Cake for a pot luck dinner last night and to suprise the birthday gal too. It was a rush bake as I had to go back office for stock taking. Luckily I managed to bake this on time for the party and am very satisified with the taste too.

For recipe, please refer to http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/raspberry-cheesecake-recipe.html

Instead of using Rasphberry, I am using Blueberry instead for this bake. For the topping, I decorate it with Strawberries and Blueberries.

Fudge Nutty Cranberries Brownies

I have a date with Fion & Aunty Young for this post together theme. It was a last minute bake as I was very tied up with my work. As I have promised Fion I will support this theme, no matter how busy I am, I still have to give them my support. This is one of my favourite desserts and I love to have it with vanilla ice cream. This may sounds fattening but once a while indulge in this should be fine.
