Free Time....

Yeah,...today i have lots of free time...so i spent the whole afternoon in my kitchen. Heehee! And left my daughter playing herself...poor thing!
Luckily the cheese cake i made here is her favourite, that makes me don't feel that guilty for not playing with her.


A recipe from my sister (little kitchen)....she has been making this for me, and i love it so much!
This is the first time i try this out, and its really good! I cut it into small piece and placed them in a paper cup , don't they look nice...heehee!




Okay, the 2nd is the 'Chai Kueh'........
This is one of my favourite kueh. And i've been trying to make this many times.....:P
Too bad... its difficult for me to have a soft and yummy skin. Sigh...:( This is because i've made the skin too thick. I'm so worry that the filling may oozed out so that's why lorr.... Anyway i won't give up...will try very soon ...heehee!

Well....at least it looks nice in this picture i took here...haha! The filling is quite tasty but not the skin larr......For freinds out there who like to try this out....may check out the recipe below...
