Assalamualaikum and Hullo errrone!

The brother’s injury brings out the chef in him. A week after the Lemon Cheesecake episode, the next victim is Almond Florentine.

Can’t wait!

Ingredients:

2 egg white

140 gm icing sugar (I use 100 gm)

260 gm of almond

Steps:

Take picture first 😀

2 egg white in da bowl

Icing sugar joins the eggs

Preheat the oven before that! Haha… noob

Ahhh.. Finally, the brother is using his muscle. To a good use. Haha. Whip em’

Kaypo kia here puts in the almond.. I must be in the frame mahhh

Lining the parchment paper. Because it’s his idea to bake, I made him line it. Haha… hate lining parchment paper mannn

Mix em well…

Put it in the parchment paper. You can put it in bite size shapes or do it the lazy but cool way. Put it together and break em up later! Haha… Saves time right?? *double jerk eyebrow*

Bake em for 6-8 mins or until they’re golden brown. Hah!

My microwave oven was a lil weak so, it took us, 1 hour!! Yes, I know… 6 mins to 60 mins is just… hmph… nehmindla…

Because there’s extra almond, my brother asked me to make another 1 … my own.. Sound like fun right? Haha.. so, I made la. Preheat another smaller oven an all, put it in and after 10mins, pale like me. sighhh…

Got a little impatient there… Increase the temperature to 250°C and increase the timing.

and voila!.

Charcoal glazed almond florentines… Anyone?

Haha..

I rest my case.

Ciao!

Assalamualaikum! Peace to you people!! 🙂

Yesterday the blue moon came. Did you miss it? Haha… The brother fractured his leg recently, so he’s on medical leave. When he gets bored the day after blue moon, he cooks, bakes, whatever it is, he’ll whip something in the kitchen. Up first, as you can guess from the title, it’s no bake cheesecake.

He’s chef. I’m assistant chef. So, while he goes to the doctor, I have to buy the ingredients.

Ingredients, You’ll need:

2 packets of Marie biscuit.

3 blocks of unsalted butter. I use SCS unsalted butter.

3 tubs of Philadelphia cheese

1 tin of condensed milk

1 tin of fruit cocktail

1 tin of longan

1 tin of lychee

*honestly, I’d rather have all lychee. But, up, to you 🙂

oh!

And a lemon *phew*

The steps:

Blend or pulse the Marie biscuit till fine.
(I end up using 3 out of 4 tube, ~~don’t tell my brother~~)

Put the blocks of unsalted butter in a mixing bowl and pour the fine Marie biscuit over it.

(Note: Put the butter in the fridge until the Marie biscuit has been blended/crushed/pulsed. My preference. I don’t like it runny when mixing the biscuits together.)

Then you pinch the butter and biscuit crumbs together to a crumbly consistency. (Tips: use your finger tips since it’s the coldest part of your body and the butter won’t melt when you’re mixing it like fjkdhgjhgfd)

Then, line the base and side of springform pan and freeze it!

Use the remaining biscuit base in other food container, or, you can use less biscuit and butter 🙂

Now, when you watch movie on television, there’s advertisement right? Unless you watch HBO la… I think

Advertisement time! Haha… 1st meal at 7pm when the ma got home from work and got this for me along the way… Thanks ma! *rubs belly*

While I was chomping away

The brother whip the cream cheese, 3 blocks of it and a tin of condense milk. I think the recipe says 3 tins but, taste first, 1 is enough for us. Add more if you like it sweet 🙂
