I have made chocolate crinkle cookies before using a recipe from Paula Deen but she calls them Chocolate Gooey Butter Cookies and the recipe calls for a cake mix and cream cheese. What I have here is very basic and just as delicious as Paula Deen’s cookies.

This is the Blueberry version of the Twisted Cinnamon Bread I’ve first made back in June 2011. Bear in mind that I made this Blueberry Twisted Cinnamon Bread last month and I’m just writing about it now. I roll like that, I guess…

Peanut Butter & Oatmeal Cookies

My children are exhausted and hungry after school so I try to make treats like cookies and cupcakes for them to snack on once they’re home. I figured sugar rush would activate their energy button so they could do their homework. That, and the fact that we’re always looking for something sweet after dinner. We probably should cut back on sweet treats though coz this month alone, I’ve made chocolate chip cookies one week, then chocolate cupcakes with cream cheese frosting, then these peanut butter and oatmeal cookies for this week.

Well, I can’t think about that right now, I’ll think about that tomorrow. For now, here’s the recipe for Peanut Butter & Oatmeal Cookies. I adapted the recipe from Big Mama’s Home Kitchen.

I made my first custard cake in March 2012. I’m quite impressed that it is almost a year before I’d make it again. I actually planned on making a chocolate version but I saw the box of caramel cake mix and I thought, hmm, a layer of caramel base, custard, and caramel cake sounds interesting. So at the last minute I decided on Custard Caramel Cake instead. Yes, you’ve read it right, a caramel cake box mix. Guilty as charged.

Homemade Pop Tarts

HOMEMADEPOPTARTS7

Homemade Pop Tarts are officially off the bucket list of homemade goodies to make. I’ve already tackled homemade pasta and homemade bread, now behold, the homemade pop tarts. Thanks to my daughter who ate the last store-bought pop tart this morning. When I threw the box out I told her we could make our own which got her so excited so I made the crust, stored it in the fridge for 2 hours, and told her to be patient. Because it doesn’t really take that long to bake pop tarts, I decided to wait until after dinner to continue the process. It was a nice incentive for my daughter to eat her dinner. “Dinner first, then we’ll make pop tarts.” It worked like a charm.

Making homemade pop tarts is surprisingly easy. All you really need is a tried and tested recipe for a pie crust, then pick whatever fillings you want. The most obvious choices for fillings are fruit jams. We’re lucky to still have a few jars of my mother-in-law’s homemade strawberry and blueberry jams so I used that as fillings. I used my trusted apple pie crust with additional tablespoon of sugar.

Eggless Bread Pudding W/ Strawberry Jam

Posted in  Baked Goodies, Sweets And Desserts 2 comments


I have a loaf of homemade bread that was in danger of going bad coz we’re either shy or lazy to slice what we need so we still use store-bought sliced bread. I looked at it earlier today and told myself, “Self, there must be something you could make out of this bread.” I’d hate throwing homemade bread in a couple of days, yah know. Bread pudding came to mind right away. Then I realized I boiled the last 2 eggs for my daughter this morning. I thought, there must be some eggless bread pudding recipe somewhere in google. There were a lot, believe it or not. I read a few of them and got the idea of how to make my own eggless bread pudding using some of the homemade strawberry jam from my Mother-in-Law.

My daughter turned 6 yrs old back in August. I made this Princess Doll Cake as her 2nd cake. The month of September has past, and it’s about to turn November in a couple of weeks or so. I am finally writing about this doll cake. There’s no point prolonging this even longer by explaining why it has taken me this long to write the process so let me just get to it. Thanks for understanding :) .
