Lemon Squares

Want some lemon squares?



How much does it costs? Actually I dont know. BuT I dont think this is the time to sell these stuff since sugar costs are waaaay waaay up at P63/kilo this recipe requires 2 cups of granulated sugar and 2 cups of confectioners sugar for the crust. This squares are definitely not for diabetics, to think that the recipe even suggested sprinkling powdered sugar on top for decoration.

The kids and well Ate lah who has sweet tooth liked it, I however didnt. I love baking and I love watching them eat it but eating swet stuff is not really me.

So there, lemon squares check! Next on the list is blueberry cheesecake. I am seriously hoping that this time my cheesecake will turn out great. Bain Marie (google it na lang ha) will be used this time and I expect better result.

Cookies

Dear Santa, I want bigger cookie cutters this Christmas and that beautiful Willton magazine about decorating at "Cooks exchange" in Megamall. Oh I also want those fancy stainless icing decorating set, my cheap (as in 19 peso) plastic decor set burst open when I wast trying to put icing, I bought 2 just in case but then both of them burst. And did I mention I also want pyrex bowls for melting chocolates? There are tons more Santa but I dont think Rudolf will be able to carry them here, maybe you'll need all the reindeers to carry my gifts :D


Hi! This is the only batch I took a pic of because it took 3 hours to make. I wasnt even able to finish putting fondant to each cookie because I got tired na. Anyway, I can still use the fondant next time I prepare a cake.

Btw, they are marshmallow fondant. Kneading is the most dreadful thing in baking, me thinks. Next time I bake I'll use icing na lang, hopefully by then I have a nice decorating set na, wish wish :D
