Kek Alunan Kasih

T.H.E R.A.M.B.L.I.N.G.S

Alhamdulillah... we meet again today. How was your weekend? Mine was busy..

Firstly thank you to Aza for the order. I do hope you're happy with the cupcakes and enjoyed the brownies. It's my pleasure to prepare all of them for you.

Hubby's nephew came by our place and I had served him these puffs (with curry puff filling), together with the cake which I will post the recipe later on.

Last Saturday was Earth Hour day. So, did you off the lights in your homes? I did...but not 100% of the house's lights. Mom refused to switch off the lights and TV in her room. Hahahaha....

T.H.E R.E.C.I.P.E

I came across this recipe a couple of times at a few blogs when I was bloghopping. Sounds challenging.. So I decided to give it a try yesterday. Made half the recipe. Thank you to Puan Mastura Yasak, Ummi and Am-Flora for sharing the recipe and also the tips. Allow me to re-post it here for others to view. Thank you.

Bahan:-

(bagi 1/2 adunan, akak guna loyang 3 1/2 x 8 in)

5 Biji Telur

1 ½ cwn (250 gm) planta atau butter

2 ½ cwn tepung gandum *

1 sudu kecil baking powder (*diayak bersama)

2 cwn gula halus (boleh kurangkan)

½ cwn susu cair (utk separuh kek, akak letak +- 1/2 cwn jgk)

1 sudu kecil esen vanila

*Serbuk koko (secukupnya)

*Pewarna ( citarasa masing-masing)

Cara-Cara:

Pukul planta dan gula smpai kembang.

Masukan telur satu persatu, pukul lagi sampai kembang

Masukan *esen vanilla, susu cair, gaul hingga sebati dan masukan tepung sedikit demi sedikit.

Bahagikan dua bahagian, campurkan pewarna pink dan satu bahagian pewarna hijau (*akak letak 3 kaler, biru, oren dan pink)

Griskan loyang dan tabur sikit tepung..masukkan adunan biru, ratakan dlm loyang dan ayak serbuk koko menutupi lapisan biru tersebut - ayak nipis-nipis jer.

Kemudian masukkan adunan lapisan oren dan ratakan, ayak lagi serbuk koko dan seterusnya tuangkan lapisan pink dan ratakan perlahan-lahan. (jangan sampai serbuk koko di lapisan-lapisan tadi terangkat).

Bakar lebih kurang 45min. pada suhu 160 Degree ikut oven masing-masing (untuk separuh adunan akak bakar 35 minit sahaja)

Nota Am-flora :

Utk membuat lapisan kaler2 tu biar tebal sbb bila kita melapis & meratkan adunan tersebut serbuk koko tak akan terikut sama. Tapi bila adunan yg nak kita lapiskan itu agak nipis/sikit bila nak meratakan lapisan tu, serbuk koko akak tertarik sama - nanti corak tak akan jadi cantik.

Have a nice day everyone!
