Baking Day

In an attempt to get rid of leftover salami and cheese, we made a quick appetizer while waiting for our leftover chicken rice to heat up/steam.

And we came up with croque madame! AWESOME. LOL

Its just grilled buttered bread, topped with salami, cheese slice and a sunny side up egg. =D

Then on Sunday, when a huge wave of procrastination hit, we set out to test our new CHF20 mixer! haha. First we made Chocolate Cream Pie which hasnt finished yet cuz its still being chilled overnight. Then, we made an attempt on Viennese Fingers. Sadly...... the recipe we took off Marie Claire didnt turn out anything well, cuz we had a very dry dough which kinda fell apart when we piped it out. In the end, instead of piping, we just rolled the dough into mini balls and flattened them on the baking sheet.

Lousy recipe really. Ended up with really crumbly biscuits which had a very sandy texture to it and not sweet enough.

Baked cookies which were kinda crumbling apart.

This was the only attempt that succeeded being dipped in chocolate without crumbling into the melted chocolate.

We gave up on dipping and proceeded on dolloping chocolate on the cookies instead. >.<"

Since we had 1kg of fresh HUGE strawberries in the fridge, we made use of the rest of the melted chocolate to make chocolate coated strawberries!!!

Not enough chocolate to coat all properly. but they tasted GOOD all the same.
