M&M's Cookies (II)






Recipe source: Joy Of Cooking






















Ingredients:-
2 cups (260g) all purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt ( I omitted )
3/4 cup (170g) unsalted butter, room temperature ( I used salted butter )
1/3 cup ( original 2/3 cup /130g ) granulated white sugar
1/4 cup ( original 2/3 cup / 140g ) firmly packed light brown sugar
1 large egg ( I used small egg )
1 large egg yolk ( I used small egg )
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 cup (200g) M&M's or Smarties candies ( I used mini M&M's )

Method:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Place one oven rack in the top third of the oven, and one oven rack in the bottom third of the oven.
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt.
In the bowl of your electric mixer ( or with a hand mixer ), beat the butter and sugars until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).  Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
Add the egg and egg yolk, beating until well combined.  Beat in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture and beat just until incorporated.
Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.  (If batter is soft, cover and refrigerate for 30 to 60 minutes or until firm).
Using a 1/4 cup (60 ml), an ice cream scoop, or two spoons, form batter into large balls.
Place six balls of dough on each baking sheet.
Gently flatten each ball of dough into a 2 1/2 inch (6.5cm) round.
Completely cover the tops of the cookies with the M&M's or Smarties.
Gently press the candies into the dough.
Bake the cookies for about 14 - 17 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through the baking time.
The cookies are done when they are light golden brown in color and just set around the edges.
They will still seem a little soft in the center but they will firm up as they cool.
Remove from oven and let the cookies cool a few minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to cool.
Makes about 15 large cookies.

Chocolate Chip Cookies (1)


Source: Rock Recipes with little changes (A crispy and chewy type chocolate chip cookies)

Ingredients:
1 1/3 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar ( i used 1/4 cup fine sugar )
1 egg ( i used small size )
1 teaspoon vanilla extract or butterscotch flavouring ( or both )
8 oz semisweet chocolate chips

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F (170C).  Lightly spray one cookie sheet with spray oil or line with parchment paper.
In a medium sized bowl whisk together flour, salt and baking soda.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.  Add the egg and vanilla and combine thoroughly.
Add the flour mixture to the sweetened butter.  Mix only enough to incorporate flour.  Do not over mix.  Fold in the chocolate chips.
Form cookies by dropping  rounded teaspoon of dough on the prepared cookie sheet two inches apart.
Bake until light brown around the edges, about 12-15 minutes, depending on cookie size.
Over baking is the biggest problem with most chocolate chip cookies. 
Your oven temperature and the type of cookie sheet you use will vary the baking times considerably. 
When they are golden brown around the edges is the time to remove them from the oven.
Thinking they are a little underdone is probably a good thing.
Experiment by baking only a couple of cookies at a time to see what the perfect baking time is for your oven.
Cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheet before removing to a wire rack to cool thoroughly.

I prefer mine to be little brown but not over bake.

Apam Mentega









































Source: YatieBahan-bahan: (+- 50 biji)
Bahan (A) Bahan-bahan untuk gula hangus:-
1 1/2 cawan gula pasir
1 cawan air (Yatie guna air panas dan tuang sikit-sikit, Kim jugak)
250g mentega


Bahan (B):-
    3/4 cawan gula castor
    4 biji telur (Kim guna C gred)
    3 cawan tepung gandum ayak bersama *
    2 sudu teh soda bikarbonate *
    1 tin susu cair (400g)
    1 sudu teh esen vanila

Cara membuat gula hangus:-
Masukkan gula dalam periuk, masak dengan api perlahan hingga gula larut dan berwarna perang.
Padamkan api (untuk mengelakkan air gula terpercik semasa kita tuang air) dan masukkan air.
Nyalakan semula api dan kacau hingga semua larut dan masukkan mentega, kacau rata dan ketepikan.
   
Cara menyediakan adunan apam mentega:
Putar gula, telur dan esen vanila hingga kembang dan masukkan gula hangus yang masih panas tadi.
Kemudian masukkan susu selang selikan dengan tepung gaul semua hingga sebati.
Perap selama 1/2 jam.
Panaskan pengukus dan acuan lompang.  Tuangkan adunan ke dalam acuan yang disapu sedikit minyak.
Adunan ini jika dituang penuh ke dalam acuan pun tidak mengapa sebab semasa masak ia tidak akan      melimpah.
Jika guna acuan lompang kukus selama lebih kurang 15 minit - 20 minit.  Tutup pengukus dengan kain supaya wap tidak jatuh ke bawah.
