Milestone.

Hello strangers! i finally got a blog up to update on my baking adventures! *pop confetti* There are still some amendments to be made, but i'm too excited to wait, thus for this entry (whoops!). Anyways i'm kinda new in the baking cyber world so please bear with some of my antics yeah haha. Oh yes and i have to thank my awesome friend Tee Ming for coming up with such a lovely layout for the blog! shall pass you some sweet treats the next time i see you!

I shall share a recipe for the first entry then!


 This recipe came out from nowhere (at 2am actually), and i have to thank my insomnia sleep bugs for it. Being a teen, sleeping hours can be so exaggerating which last to a maximum of 12 hours. i was sleeping like a log for a week straight and finally it got in my head that i sleep too much. so i started my healthy lifestyle plan, which apparently only lasted me for a few days haha!

 Okay so back to this lifestyle plan, i was trying to sleep at 11pm and wake up at 9.30am  to readjust my body clock. i lay wide awake for 2 hours straight and gave up. Thus, i turn on the television and Rachel Allen's Bake! was on TLC. Awesomeeeee. Then she was teaching how to make these beautiful blondies in a quickie.

Blondies are actually brownies, but in a paler colour like white. Although the recipe is called White Chocolate Blondies, I added chopped peanuts into it due to the special request from my dad. he LOVES nuts of all kind, which explains the many different containers of nuts i have on my dining table. Fortunately he loves it! So did everyone else whom i offered them to. yay.



White Chocolate Blondies (Adapted from Rachel Allen's Bake! on TLC)

100g butter
150g peanut butter
1tsp vanilla essence
175 sugar
1 egg
75g white chocolate chopped (I used bakeable white chocolate chips since i have it at home)
75g chopped peanut (optional: if you like a little more crunch in your blondies, like my dad)
125g sifted plain floour
1tsp baking soda

- Whisk butter and peanut butter till light and well mixed.
- Add in the sugar (in small batches at a time), vanilla essence and egg till it is well combined together
- Stir in the white chocolate and chopped peanuts( if you opt for it in the recipe) till it is well mixed.
- Lastly, fold in your sifted flour together with the baking soda until your batter becomes well combined. It should look sticky.
- Bake in the oven for 25- 30 minutes till it turns golden brown. i used a skewer to poke and check just to make sure it's done (:
