Pick-me-up

From what I observed, people rave about this dessert THE MOST,
whenever i make it.

Perhaps people perceive it to be hard to make /
quite fancy to be homemade /
has a bit of what everyone is bound to like:
chocolate, cream, coffee...
Well, except i didn't put liquor in mine : b














Honestly though, it's so much easier to make --
than cookies & cakes:
No-bake, since the fridge does all the work for you;
No perfection needed, you can be sloppy & it still looks decent;
No need to use any flour... oh the counter is so clean!













Essential items: Coffee powder & ladyfingers.













Cream cheese makes every dessert tastes wonderful ; )













Layering is essential.














The italian dessert is widely known as Tiramisu,
which means: Pick-me-up.
Considering how easy the recipe is,
I'll certainly make it again ; )

If you want one too, send in your request & i can cater : b

Coffee + Peanuts?!

Dear friends,

I love you,
that's why you received my experiments
as Christmas gifts.

I trust that it'd nourish your body,
unless you're allergic to peanuts like Evan / Davey.

So this is how the Coffee Crumb Peanut Cake came about:




















































































: ) They go well with ice-cream / milk / coffee!

Apple x Cranberry x Coffee =......

I've always loved apples in my dessert --
Apple pie, Apple crumbs cake,
Warm Honey glazed apple with vanilla bean ice-cream...
MMmmMMMMmmm......

My eyes totally lit up when i saw what Kevin brought home on Friday:



















Harry & David Apple Cranberry Muffin Mix!

Yes, yes, using mix is cheating...
But hey! It's Harry & David's!!!
It can't be bad ; D















& the instruction couldn't have been any easier...
1) Add the mix in a bowl.
2) Add water, milk or
apple / cranberry juice (Recommended).
3) Scoop it into muffin cups.
4) Bake at 350F in the oven.

Then again, it's Hei baking.
So we must tweak it a bit.

We don't have apple nor cranberry juice;
and the milk went bad into one big clump,
for it was expired a week ago...
(Thank goodness it wasn't green & moldy...?!)

But I'm not as boring as plain water, am I?

Hence, I used 1/4 cup of heavy cream,
1/4 cup of half & half,
& half a bottle of Starbucks Vanilla Frap.

No, I don't know why : b
Except the feeling that it should taste good : )














So here you go ; )
& the empty muffin wrap was Goh goh's verdict.















YUM!
