Season of Tears, Rendition of Love!!!

i shed a tear today,

silently, i felt it fall,

you caught it,

shared it,

held it,

felt it,

then suddenly,

it wasn't big

after all..!!!

after reading kama's posts, i suddenly shead tears and cried silently in my heart since this year is a tough time for us to face our lives without the existence of each other..we always be together thru thick and thin and never give a chance to other people to let us down in whatever circumstances..and for the time being and also for the sake of ourselves, we have to be far far away to achieve our own goals and dreams of our families to look us succeeded in the journey of lives...we need to make them proud with our achievements but at the same time,we lost our precious togetherness with friends that we love for soo many years...one thing that constantly remains in our hearts is the strong bond of friendship that we are always proud of..and that differentiates us with other people...we are more than friends..we are brothers, we are a happy family because togetherness is all we are after...and it always be...always have, always will...

to the one i love, my dear bestfriend!!!

you're always in my heart,

always on my mind,

no matter how deep the water,

you, i always find.

my memories are darkening,

you're getting more unclear,

i've fallen into a tunnel,

but i am not to fear.

very soon we'll be as one,

together as we once had been,

filling our memories boxes,

for another years of being unseen.

Chocolate Cupcakes With Ganache Frosting

who can resist a cupcake and what is it exactly that makes them sooo appealing???
why are they loved by children and adult alike???

perhaps, it is their size that makes them sooo tempting - after all, you can have an individual, diminutive cake all to yourself..!!!

if we look back to its history, there are several theories on the origin of cupcakes, and they probably all have some truth in them..

what i mostly like about cupcakes is that they are quick and easy to make and some of the recipes are made by all-in-one method which is my fave part for even quicker results..

furthermore, we are spoilt for choice as these are irresistable cakes worthy of any occasion whether afternoon tea, supper party, a classrom birthday, a cake sale or even a wedding..cupcakes are so IN nowadays and that's the only reason why people love them..!!!

Gingerbread Men Cookies

they are soooo cute....!!!!!

well, when you see these men, you will be sooo dramatically happy for they are soo pretty in shapes, well-decorated and colorful too..normally, this cookie recipe is baking during christmas festival..christmas baking wouldn't seem complete without a batch of gingerbread men..but who cares about christmas baking ayte since we can bake them for hari raya too..what i mostly love about these cookies is they are fragrant with ground ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon and cloves-the amount of which can be adjusted to suit your own individual taste..

ingredients:

• 3 cups of all purpose flour


• 1/4 tsp of salt


• 3/4 tsp of baking soda


• 2 tsp of ground ginger


• 1 tsp of cinnamon


• 1/4 tsp of ground cloves


• 1/4 tsp of ground nutmeg


• 1/2 cup of butter, room temperature


• 1/2 cup of granulated white sugar @ dark brown sugar


• 1 large egg


• 2/3 cup of molasses @ dark corn syrup

methods:

• in a large bowl, cream together the flour, baking soda, salt and spices. set aside.


• in another bowl of your electric mixer, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. add an egg and molasses until well combined. gradually add the flour mixture beating until incorporated.


• cover and chill the dough for a few hours or overnight. (take out one hour before rolling)


• on a floured surface,roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/4 inch. cut the dough with gingerbread cutter and place on the baking sheet.


• bake for 10-15 minutes depending on sizes and let it cool before frosting and decorating the gingerbread.

if u like your gingerbread cookies on the soft side, bake them a little less than the recipes states as the longer the bake, the harder they will become..

for the first recipe today, i wanna show you how to make a good Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies which always be my one of my fave during hari raya..i really like chocolate which explains why i put another chocolate cookie recipe on my blog..i couldn't resist this irresistable chocolate cookie as it is a cross between the very chocolately Chocolate Fudge Cookie and the buttery Chocolate Cookie..these soft textured cookies contain three types of chocolates, unsweetened cocoa powder, melted dark chocolate and chocolate chips which gives them a rich and complex chocolate flavor..so let's get started!!!

ingredients:

• 280g of semi sweet chocolate, chopped @ 1 1/2 cups of semi sweet chocolate chips
• 220g of all purpose flour
• 35g of unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 1/4 tsp of baking soda
• 1 1/4 tsp of salt
• 1 cup of butter
• 1/2 cup od dark brown sugar
• 1/2 cup of granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 1/4 tsp of vanilla extract
• 125g of semi sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup of pecan or walnut, chopped (optional)

methods:

• melt the 280g of semi sweet chocolate in a stainless steel bowl placed over a saucepan of simmering water. remove from heat and set aside to cool to room temperature.
• in a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt.
• in a nother bowl of your electric mixer, cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy (2-3 mins).scrape both sides of the bowl and add the melted chocolate and beat until weel incorporated. add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. then beat in the vanilla extract.
• add the flour in stages, mixing until incorporated. fold in the chocolate chips and nuts.
• form the dough into small balls and place them on the baking sheet. with moisten hand, gently flatten the balls into your desired cookies.
• bake the cookies for about 14-17 minutes . the cookies are done when they are just barely set in the center. they should still be soft. remove them fron the oven and let them cool for minutes on the baking sheet before transferred onto the wire rack to cool.

i myself alone usually bake my cookies into giant sized coz i love large cookies..but if my mum joins my baking session, she always blabbering about my giant cookies and she's gonna fixed them into normal tads..for she loves small bites than i do..even though she's not sooo into cookies or cakes..

wait for my next post..

until then,

i know u love me..
