Simple egg tart recipe


Hong Kong style eggtart is always one of my favourite chinese pastries. ( I like portuguese egg tart too lah ). 
What triggers me to bake this is actually my mum's friend, Aunty Sylvia, bakes eggtart for us and it's super nice! So i got the recipe from her hehe
Her recipe is rather simple and uses only basic ingredients like flour, egg, sugar. What you need to buy additionally is evaporated milk

Egg Tart Recipe 
makes 20

Tart Ingredients
250gram Plain Flour
120gram salted butter (room temperature)
55gram icing sugar
1 egg
1tsp vanilla essence
Direction : Whisk egg and sugar until incorporated then add vanilla essence. Slowly mix butter and then flour. Avoid kneading dough.
When you think the dough is ready, cover it with fresh wrap (保鲜纸) and put it in fridge. At least 20mins, can put over 1 night.

Filling ingredients
100gram sugar
300ml water
4 eggs
80m evaporated milk ( 淡奶)
Direction : Boil 300ml water and slowly add sugar until fully dissolved. Cool the sugar water to room temperature then slowly add the 4 eggs, mix evenly, and then the evaporated milk. 
* Note that the eggs are best to be beaten fully &
the sugar water is important to be at room temperature, you dont want scrambled egg :P

If you are ready to bake, just take the dough out of the fridge and then fill the filling. Bake at 200 degree celcius , about 15-20mins.


Few things to note, it's better to buy tart moulds as the tarts will look better. For the first

There's a Starbuck at 2nd storey and we can see the stage from there. We thought we are smart  that not many ppl can think of that but we are so wronggggg!
There is already long queue of people at the starbucks

Funfetti Cupcakes

What do we do when it's public holiday? 
Bake bake bake of course hehe
So this time Faith , my neighbour + classmate, and i decided to bake Funfetti cupcakes!!
HMMM recipe searching again, and so we chose RachellTan's recipe! There's also video uploaded on both her youtube channel and website.
What are funfetti cupcakes? To me, they are basically vanilla cupcakes with colourful sprinkles and i love vanilla cupcakes hehe
When we are on our way to nearby market to buy butter, we saw a xiao shuai ge. He keep looking at us with his innocent look omg I cant help but sneakily take a photo of him ><

Back to the point, so now we have all the ingredients, let's get started!

After creaming butter and sugar until fluffy, slowly add an egg one at a time...I guess you know the steps by looking at the recipe so not being naggy here ><lll

This is how our batter looks like.We spammed a lot of sprinkles but doesnt look so after we mixed them O_O The batter is a bit thick as compared to rachel's one. Guess it's either we added too much flour or overmixed.
