Mixed Berries Condensed Milk Muffins

I am so craving for something sweet but less fattening (if only such thing exist!).  Dok browse FB,  tiba2 ternampak la muffin yg gorgeous ni.  Terus berkobar2 semangat nak membakar.  Bila tengok  the recipe,  wah!  senang giler!  Maka,  terus aku capai pot and whisk and mangkuk besar.  Bahan2 semua dah ada kat rumah.

Maka,  jadilah my berries muffins yg sedap serta lazat ni.  Hahaha..  Perasan  pulak. 

Ingredients
125g salted butter
340g can sweetened condensed milk 
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups self-raising flour
2 eggs, lightly whisked
125g punnet fresh raspberries
125g punnet fresh blueberries
Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 180C/160C fan forced. Line muffin pans with paper cases.
Step 2
Combine the butter and condensed milk in a small saucepan. Cook, stirring, over medium-low heat for 3 minutes or until the butter has melted and the mixture is smooth. Set aside to cool slightly. Stir in the vanilla.
Step 3
Sift the flour into a large mixing bowl and make a well in the centre. Add the condensed milk mixture and eggs. Fold until until just combined. Add berries,  mix well. 
Step 4
Spoon the mixture evenly among the paper cases and gently press a raspberry and a blueberry into the top of each. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until muffins are golden and the tops spring back when lightly touched. Set aside to cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust lightly with icing sugar to serve

Fresh Strawberry Cake

Rupa paras memang tak lawa, but rasa sangat sedap. 

Tapi kalau guna recipe ni, confirmed lepas makan kek, boleh kena kencing manis. Double the butter in the recipe and  reduced the sugar to only 1 cup. Use only 2 1/4 cup of flour for 1 cup of butter. Takyah double the flour. Nanti sangat dry.

2 1/4 tsp teaspoons baking powder

1 cup butter

1 cup sugar

DIRECTIONS

• FOR CAKE: Sift together: flour, salt, and baking powder.

Nona Manis

The beauty of RMO is that, people starts to cook at home. Tu termasuklah aku. Not that I don't cook at home, but aku go beyond what I normally cook. Kuih melayu is never my forte. Selalu kalau nak makan kuih, pegi je beli kat gerai kuih kat melawati. But during RMO, banyak yang tutup. Maka, terpaksa lah aku merajinkan diri untuk buat kuih, demi mok.
