The Ultimate Chocolate Chunk Cookies

it's getting hot in here.

So the lunar new year was all around us the past few weeks, that meant non stop supply of yummy goodies at every table in every home. There was pineapple tarts, kueh lapis and my all time favourite, cashew cookies.

I wanted to contribute to the festivities - make something decadent and oh so yummy.

Since I had very little time, I wanted to make something quick and yet satisfying. Then I remembered, Nigella Lawson's ultimate chocolate chip cookies receipe which she did in mere minutes. Ah, a receipe from the goddess herself.

But to make it ultra ultra indulgent, inside of using semi sweet chocolates chips, I used actual chunks of chocolate, let that slowly melt into the batter so that when you take a huge bite, it literally melts in your mouth and oozes.

There is nothing better than an oozing chocolate chunk cookie.

Nutella Cupcakes - an ugly froster's dream.

all good, it's all good.

As I have lovingly said before, I am a lazy, ugly icer and froster. I can't make smooth little domes that look good enough to model. I'm clumsy, messy and a disgrace to the art of cupcake sculpting.

So you can imagine my absolute delight when I found the recipe for self frosting cupcakes with Nutella.

If you don't know what Nutella is, it is pure heaven in a bottle. Hazelnut cocoa spread that pretty much goes on anything you dare to put it on - bread, apples and bananas. It is the breakfast of my childhood, I remember mom spreading this lovingly on my breads in the morning and this would make me just shiver in delight.

I like how they say "with skimmed milk" - like that's going to make a difference.

Now, besides tasting just wonderful, this handy little spread even frosts the cupcake for you, giving you pretty swirls and patterns while baking.

Maple Syrup Pancake Muffins with Rose Icing

hello my pretty yet decadent friend

Ok, how could I even resist the thought of a maple syrup pancake IN a muffin? I was snooping around the internet looking for quirky recipes when I came across this absolutely wonderful idea of putting my favourite breakfast deal into a little muffin which I can carry around with me and share the love.

It's very comforting this creation, it gives you both the syrupy feeling of a good morning and yet the kick of a good evening. It makes everything in this world seem bearable - trust me. This muffin can literally END FEUDS.

So, I highly recommend everyone to either a) bake this or b) eat this or c) find/bribe/ someone to bake this then eat this - because this muffin will make you see colours again.
