Catching up...

My posts are so outdated now! It's time to catch up on what I have baked lately. I have been baking CNY cookies to fulfill orders, so busy I really don't have the time to do any postings! :p So this is the time to catch up and update now.

Tried my hand at Kueh Makmur. I thought it was quite okay, but most of them said "Not Nice". I'll leave it at that comment.

Made these pineapple tarts for my family. They loved them very much and can't stop at one. One more compliment for me. :)


Baked these Valrhona Triple Chewy Chocolate Cookies
as free gifts to my "customers". Some has no comments, but my children simply love them!


Baked my Kueh Lapis after I've finished baking my cookies to fulfill orders. A must have for my CNY. ;)


Finally, the cookies that I am selling and the goodies that I give. From left to right: Valrhona Triple Chewy Chocolate Cookie as goodie, Almond Cookies, Spicy Dried Shrimps Cookies, Chocolate Almond Cookie and Round Pineapple Tart as goodie.


Lastly, here's wishing everyone
新年快乐!
万事如意!
年年有余!
身体建康!

Hey Jane,
Miss your blog so much!! The pineapple tart looks really yummy. It's always my favorite cookies during CNY. And the kueh lapis looks better than the one I saw in Bengawan Solo. Really professional! Would you consider to open a bakery shop? :)

Hi Grace,
Sorry if I said anything wrong. Maybe it's a matter of interest. Your interest lies more in western baking, and not in chinese bakings. Not that you don't know, but maybe don't have the right recipe? I just hope you will try one of these days. Happy Lunar New Year!!

Hi SSB,
Thanks. I baked over days and days...And not all are successful! I just baked for fun, at least if I can bake, I don't have to buy them! Only those good ones I post, no good ones, you don't see them here! Heehee...
Happy Lunar New Year to you and your family too! Save a cashew nut cookie for me! ;)

The kueh lapis looks so good! Any chance you’ll be sharing the recipe? By the way, happy lunar new year to you and your family, Jane!

Hi Laureen,
Thanks for your compliment. The recipe I always relied on is from Florence blog: Tradtional Kueh Lapis. This is slightly sweet, you might want to cut down the total sugar by 10-20%. You can double the recipe for a 10"x10" square pan. The recipe is for 7"x7" square pan. Do try it! Have fun with the oven.
