Apple Pies& Strawberry Custard

After a good tried for chicken pies, im ready to challenge the other bakery which is Apple pies. Same as previous, i've prepared a "ready to use pastry sheets" which can be found in Tesco.
As a dessert lover like me, I believe desserts are the solution to most of life's problems. :)


Cut the apple into slices and placed it on the pastry sheet


Simply put a sprinkle of caster sugar or icing sugar on the top of the apple pies




Yummy~





As there is still a small part remaing of pastry sheet and i found some strawberries in the refrigerator, so i can take this excuse to bake another dessert which is Strawberries Custard..hehe..

Get the pastry sheet as base then apply some vanilla custard before put some slices of apple and strawberry as decorations




I can tell u....It's EXCELLENT!!!

Cupcakes

A cupcake, is a small cake designed to serve one person, frequently baked in a small, thin paper cup. However, I had those cupcakes before but i had never tried to bake it by myself.
As i got the recipe from Emily last few week ago so i wanted to try it today. The recipe is easy and just needed few of the ingredients such as self-raising flour, butter, milk, sugar, salt, eggs, vanila essence, chocolate chips and thin paper cups.



This was mixtured all the ingredients..



Added some chocolate chips and it's ready to bake..




Seem like just only 90% baked..



Please don't look at the colour as it's taste very nice!!




Yeah!! Chocolate chips cupcakes and taste YUMMY!!
