2nd Last Day of Ramadhan

Today is the 2nd last day of Ramadhan. Many ppl feel happy but I'm startg to feel a bit sad.
Tomorrow will be the last day of sahur with my family. Come next Ramadhan, Insya-Allah both me &
my bro will be in our own home. Talking abt home, need to start finding one after Raya...prob in Nov lah.

Anyway, I tried making kuih today. I dun hv oven but I die2 wanted to try to make ths "sarang semut" kuih cos i got it thru one of my multiply contacts (Frina) . Decided to do it thru my microwave. Sometimes with microwave, kuih tak jadi becos temp is diff from normal oven. First try was bad...hangus..hehe..

The grated dough with choc rice ready to be baked :

in the microwave for 15 minutes :

first try, using the "bake cookies" function in the microwave, turned out too dark!! my fault also lah cos i totally depended on the function & i was doing smthg else..by the time, i checked the oven, it was too late..hehe :



decided not to give up, tried again using "convection oven". better now :

in the container:

I also tried making chocolate cornflakes (recipe from suria channel website). Forgot to take pics of the "process". I only hv the final piece. The taste was ok lah, dun quite like it cos a bit too sweet :

And oh, me & my cuzin baked some cookies last week at her house. M & M cookies (recipe also from Frina multiply)

the dough :

rolling the dough :

m & m on the cookies...ready to bake!

done, in the bottle :

ran out of M & M' s replaced it with van houten choc chips (personally i prefer this, the m & m a bit too hard, but then again, maybe i baked it wrongly..hehe) :

same dough, 2 types of cookies :

The choc chip cookies was ok but the M & M cookies, hmm, i'm kinda not satisfied with how it turned out. One fine day I'll try again, I thk it was too hard lah (i thk it was my rolling technique maybe tht was wrong or maybe i used the wrong type of M&M..hehe. Insya-Allah next year I'll try all these & hoepfully more kuihs with a real oven instead of a microwave. Too late to try any other kuihs lah. Anyway, my future sis in law gave u some kuihs (thanks Erin!) & my future mum in law gave us some cake. And oh, I kind of forgot tht I already ordered a few kuihs..hehe..so my mum will scream if i sibuk2 make some more..hehe..
