*************************

There are advantages and disadvantages if you have the capability of baking things. I am talking mainly about me and I don't know about you people out there ya. I tend to be stingy! But stingy when it comes to buying things for me and not for others.

For example, everytime we dine or buy takeaways from Subway, my girl will want a piece or two of the cookies. And each piece costs RM1.50. Everytime I had to pay for the cookies, I would say to myself, I can do this... it's easy. And I will go home and start searching for the recipe. Found some recipes with good feedbacks, printed it out and then forgotten all about it, until the next visit to Subway with my daughter!

Finally today, I managed to try out one of the recipes I printed quite a while ago. As usual, if the recipe is from abroad, I will do some adjustments especially on the sugar amout. This particular recipe is very easy to prepare and surprisingly, my son loves it too. Then I am pretty sure, my girl will love it more. Kakak, In Sha ALLAH this Friday you'll get your share okay... *wink*. Thank you to Elizabethbh who posted this recipe at Allrecipes dot com.
