Coffee Butter Cake

Today I made an attempt on Coffee Butter Cake, recipe given to me by my colleague....Quite easy, only took about 20 mins to prepare and baking time 45 mins... Nice for those who likes coffee :)

Ingredients :

(A)

275 g Margarine

180 g Sugar

230 g Flour

1 tsp Baking Powder

2 tbsps Coffee Paste (i made using two packets of OLD TOWN WHITE COFFEE POWDER without sugar)

(B)

5 Eggs

(C)

60g Nibbed Almonds

Methods:

1. Cream (A) till well blended

2. Add (B) slowly and cream till light and smooth - about 4-5 mins at mid speed

3. Pour mixture into 10" round mold, sprinkle the nibbed almonds on top.

4. Bake at 180c for 45 mins.

Tips:

Do not over cream - will cause cake to sink and coarse texture

Under creaming produces stiff and hard cake....

(funny tips rite?!...cannot over and cannot under cream.....but as long as mixture is well blend, I think its ok... )

My Enzyme...FINALLY!

I've finally managed to make my own enzyme...! Made one on Saturday - Grapefruit enzyme, and on Sunday, made the Red Dragon Fruit Enzyme...

The process is quite fun, just dun like when need to peel the skin off the green lemon and when removing the seeds of the green lemon... Anyway, just hope both try will be successfull!

Musik Garten :)

Last Saturday, I brought Bryan for a trial class for Musik Garten class and he loves it!!! I definately would recommend to anyone whom belives in music for children... :)

Although the first time, Bryan bravely stood in front of everyone, mumbled alot and danced too! I enjoyed every minute during the class, just as much as Bryan did. Playing with the musical instruments is fun, also Bryan learnt to follow simple instructions from the teacher...very good for listening skills. Nevertheless, its a good exposure for him to mix around....i'm glad i found musik garten!
