As a substitute for Milk, Coconut Milk is popularly used when make cakes, but you cannot avoid the smell of Coconut. Another popular substitute is Silken Tofu, that is more concentrated than Soy Milk. Please use good quality fresh Silken Tofu for good result.

Cinnamon flavoured Apple Pie is of course lovely and I like it the best, but today I added Lemon Curd to the filling for a change. For Apple Pie, I prefer Shortcrust Pastry to Puff Pastry. Make slightly more pastry and use the same pastry for the crumble. This recipe is based on my ‘Cherry …
There are many recipes for this classic treat. Basically it is baked sweet pastry that is topped with Jam and Coconut & Egg mixture. I use my ‘Easiest Sweet Shortcrust Pastry’ for the base because it is the right amount for 20cm Square Cake Tin that I most often use. DO NOT add too much …
I had some leftover Roasted Sweet Potato, that was the common orange coloured Sweet Potato. I mashed it and made these Scones using my ‘Pumpkin Scones’ recipe. You would need some Spices. I added Ground Cinnamon and Ground Ginger today. I made 12 Scones. The reason why one of them is missing is because my …
This recipe was a result of an accident. First it started when I tried to make my ‘Very Sweet American Style Chewy Choco Chip Cookies’. I believed that I had a bag of Chocolate Chips, but I didn’t. So I added Peanuts instead. Because I added Peanuts, I added some Peanut Butter as well. The …
Today I suddenly crave Gingerbread. I can’t remember when was the last time I ate it. I used to make it quite often when my children were young. Gingerbread is not hard to make but it is not quick & easy to make. I decided to make Gingerbread Flavoured Pancakes. As these pancakes are not …
Dates and Walnuts are a great combination. Many people use these two ingredients to make cakes and cookies. I strongly believe Dates and Orange are another great combination. I added Zest of 1 Orange to these Scones, but you can add chopped Candied Orange Peels. Today I enjoy this Scone with Butter and Orange Marmalade …
When I first heard about ‘Morning Glory Muffins’, I instantly knew I would love them as they are made with almost identical ingredients as ‘My Legendary Carrot Cake’. The missing ingredients are Apple and Shredded Coconut. So, I added them to my ‘My Legendary Carrot Cake’ as I reduced the amount of grated Carrots. I …
My ‘Basic Butter Cake’ is a very easy cake. What you need to do is just mixing ingredients very well. Today I replaced Buttermilk with Sour Cream, and I added Lemon Juice and Zest. The cake cracked a little and I was disappointed. Well… it doesn’t really matter if the cake cracked. I covered it …
When I first made this cake, it was to use up a can of Coconut Cream, which I bought by mistake. I often use Coconut Milk for cooking, but not Coconut Cream. Because of the high oil content of Coconut Cream, I didn’t add Butter to this cake. I didn’t add Flour either. I made …
The other day, I baked ‘Coconut Cake’. As it was made with Desiccated Coconut, it had grainy texture. Some people like the grainy texture of Coconut Cake, but some people don’t. So, today I made this cake without Desiccated Coconut. It’s actually based on my ‘Pancakes‘ recipe. I used Coconut Milk and added some melted …
I believe many people love ‘Creme Caramel’. Have you ever tried to make it? It’s actually easy. My favourite cooking method is baking in the oven, but you can cook it in different ways. My ‘Creme Caramel’ recipe is very simple. I have been using this recipe for decades. Today I added Coffee to make …
