This is a recipe from One Day One Dish book by SeaShore publishers which I bought when we were in Singapore. In the book, the recipe is called Chocolate Rice Sprinkle but instead I replaced the chocolate rice with Hundreds and Thousands.
Cat’s Tongue Cookies
Cat’s Tongue Cookies is another recipe from The Secret of Cookies by Gu Huixue. I totally love this book my friend bought for me in Singapore! One of the ingredients is cake flour which I replaced with plain flour.
Almond & Sunflower Seed Tuiles
This is another recipe from The Secret of Cookies by Gu Huixue. In her book she has a recipe to bake almond tuiles. Instead of using all almond flakes, I am using a mix of sunflower seeds and almond flakes. Also one of the ingredients is cake flour which I replaced with plain flour.
White Lotus Sandwich Cookies
This week I decided to adapt a recipe from The Secret of Cookies by Gu Huixue and bake White Lotus Sandwich Cookies. Instead of using black dates, I am using the leftover white lotus paste I had from the Swiss Roll Snow Skin mooncake and Colourful Snow Skin mooncake. Also one of the ingredients is cake flour which I replaced with plain flour and a few other alterations.
Lavender Shortbread
Three years ago, we had a landscape gardener design our front and back garden which included rows of lavender. The small patch of grass we had in our front garden was filled with yellow, golden stones. This year, the lavender has really bloomed and fills the front garden with a nice sweet smell. I’m really pleased with it this year – they’re absolutely gorgeous!
Shortbread Biscuits
Sweetheart sugar shortbread is a recipe I used from Cathryn Dresser’s book called Let’s Bake. I didn’t use a heart cookie cutter nor put sugar on the shortbread, hence it is named plain and simply Shortbread Biscuits.
