Beeramisu

February 28, 2010 Baking

Tiramisu for the boys.
Or girls who like beer… stout in particular. I have just made the Lamington Tiramisu for Australia Day last month which I absolutely enjoyed, not to mention it is dead easy to make. When they announced this month’s Daring Bakers Challenge, and you’ve guessed it, is Tiramisu again! I was actually half [...]

Chinese New Year Peanut Cookies (花生饼)

February 2, 2010 Baking

I’ve made the peanut cookies for the Chinese New Year again. Those little golden morsels of soft peanut crumbs that simply melt in the mouth like eating a dollop of peanut butter never fail to satiate my cravings. I’ve revised my previous recipe a little and yield a better result. You can grab the recipe [...]

‘Where The Wild Things Are’ Gingerbread House… sort of

December 19, 2009 Baking

Let the Wild Rumpus Start!
“Rawwrrrrr…..!” Christmas time always brings out the wild side in me. Okay, maybe not as wild as running around the house, knocking things down and smashing things up. But I do think Christmas is the best time to let loose, be carefree; indulge yourself with lots and lots of delicious yummy [...]

Somewhere over the rainbow… is a fork.
The Talented ChocolateSuze made a rainbow cake shaped of a fork for a lady who likes to “grab your fork“. Why? Because is Helen’s birthday. It is always a good time to hang out with a group of best friends for some cooking debauchery. Minh, Yas, Helen, Simon and [...]

Chocolate cake with olive oil and fleur de sel

November 11, 2009 Baking

The cake sounds horrible in English, but if I put it in French…
Gateau au chocolat à la fleur de sel et huile d’olive.
The cake definitely sounds so much sexier in French, don’t you think? In short, just as the title says, it is a chocolate cake with olive oil and sea salt (fleur de [...]

The Pom is very inspired by the Masterchef Australia show lately, and he even suggested that he will make cupcakes after watching Julie making her “Lemon Diva” cupcakes on last friday night cooking class episode. But soon the Pom realised it is the Queen’s Birthday long weekend here in Australia, he changed his mind and [...]
