the joy of water

The magic of Brownies with White Chocolate Crumbs...


They specialise in making you fat. And what better way to console the guilt than by sharing them with everyone else? (in the hope that they expand with you)

before baking

HAHA no i'm not that cruel.... (debatable..)

Because i only helped Laura make them for HER friends. So who's to say what she's thinking???

(Then again, the swim team asked her to make a second and even bigger batch for them.....) 


 
I went op shopping today but it didn't work out. It never works out if i intend to go beforehand... 

Because op shopping is all about luck. 

Today's mistake was looking for a particular shorts design in my head.... which i hadn't been able to find elsewhere apart from in my brain

(I think it's a sign to self design them....well duh SIGH)






I really need to upload the photos from Darwin soon.... 


Howeverrrrrrrrrr..... to make up for my opshopping failure I FOUND THE BOOK I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR FOR ONLY $8 from Dymocks!!!!!!!! 

It's even cheaper than BookDepository's lowest offer (mindblowing) AND it's got one of the three nicest covers.



Even though i did want this this cover.... but hurray! I will read this after i finish Pride and Prejudice... 


....you can't tell here... but Espresso really hates the camera. LOL

oh noooo well we have two brownies versions... one is using cocoa powder and the other is actually melting the chocolate over a bain marie (water bath) first..

You prepare the dry and wet ingredients separately and make sure you add in the egg yolks/eggs slowly one by one while mixing.. Oh, and vanilla essence, raw sugar and caster sugar are essential to the final taste so make sure you add in more if you have to. If you want it sweeter then it's best to add in more raw sugar (crumb it first if it's lumpy). Then you can fold the dry ingredients into the wet ones using a spatula and you are ready to pour it into the baking tray!

i usually trust recipes by Taste.com but we also used the recipe on the back of the Nestle cocoa powder tin. hehe yay
