No ooooo, you don't want to know how many plate of that I ate,

Now we're talking

Mariangeles:
Is it butter or margarine ? Most times, they refer to margarine as butter

My sister, it's margarine, but the closet to butter here. Most Baker's even professionals use it here in Niaja. Going for butter will cripple and bankrupt you.

FloraEC:

Breakfast (5days ago). It's been long I cooked. I've been on bread diet. Buhari administration no want make we eat again. Just imagine, a module of rice is now 1,100. May God help us o.
Meanwhile, I saw strawberry in Jos the day before yesterday. A pack of about 13 - 15 fruits cost #500..

Please does anyone here want to sell oven (local oven preferably). My budget is 13k. I really miss baking...I miss baking fresh bread and meat pie. Baking is my therapy.

Good morning chefs/foodies. The pics here are making my stomach grumble this morning

Colourful

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone

Happy Thanksgiving.

FloraEC:

In a layman explanation educator
So I should buy measurement cup?
Topper butter aunty when will it finish
I bake as the spirit leads

Yes, buy measurements cups, you will be glad you did.
I didn't say buy the whole bucket of topper o
They sell it in kg, 1kg is btwn 800 -1k depending on your area and you can keep in a cool dry place to use as often as the need arises.
The 1kg I bought since oct, I am still using it, even for jollof and fried rice too

Mariangeles:
Giving direction for measurement is usually a problem.
When cooking, I go with my instincts

Instincts go very well with cooking traditional foods
But, for baking and stuffs, my sister you need to be exact to get bothe texture, quality n quantity right
Me, I have measurements cups as well as a small scale. Not taking chances in baking

FloraEC:
Educator, I want to ask a question.
I'm not good with cup measurement ooo
The butter izzit 1or2 satchel
The flour nkọ how many kg
Ehen! for sugar, izz that dangote granulated sugar ok

no be small educator
But I put both the cup and grams measurements together nah.
You need a small scale at home if you want to bake well. Baking is a science n art
But, if you don't have a scale, most of all these baking shops have measurements cups.
For butter, those satchel ones are not really advisable. Buy the topper butter they sell in kgs measurement .
And for sugar, granulated is ok, either dangote or any one.

Awesomemama:
Thanks a lot
I appreciate

You are welcome.
Don't forget to take a picture when you get a chance to make it

Awesomemama:
The butter cookies
Guess the difference between both is the addition of chocolate chips right?

Ok, let me search for the recipe page.
Meanwhile, butter cookies are soft crumbly, have butter as a major ingredient but chocolate chip cookies are harder I think....
Will modify this page when I find the recipe for the butter cookie
Modified:
Ingredients
1 cup (226g) unsalted butter, softened
2/3 cup (140g) granulated sugar
1/4 tsp salt
2 large egg yolks
1 tsp vanilla extract*
2 cups (283g) all-purpose flour (scoop and level to measure)
2 tsp milk
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment cream together butter, sugar and salt until combined.

Mix in egg yolks and vanilla.

Add flour and mix until crumbly then add in milk (if needed add in another 1 - 2 tsp milk for a more pipe-able consistency, add as little as possible for less spreading though).

Transfer to a 16-inch piping bag fitted with a large open star tip

Pipe dough into rounds onto two ungreased baking sheets (if you normally have issues with cookies spreading chill them for 30 minutes on baking sheet before baking).

Bake one sheet at a time in preheated oven until golden brown on bottom, about 12 - 16 minutes.

Let cool on baking sheet 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.

Awesomemama:
Can you please share your recipe
I'll love to try it

Which recipe dear? The butter cookies or chocolate chip cookies.
The butter cookies I got from here and have tried once, yet to try the chocolate chip cookies.

Prestonn:
For me alone please.. Thanks

Why not, if not

Mariangeles:
Use raisins as a substitute na...abi ?

Is rasians not fried fruits? Don't think it will have same effect or taste. Moreover I am not a fan of reasons.
Maybe I will just do with the chocolate chips and just make cookies.

Mariangeles:
For a first time, it wasn't bad at all
You'd perfect it next time I'm sure

Thanks, sure I will be better next time.
Next is chocolate chip cookies but the nag is that I haven't been able to find chocolate chips

Prestonn:
I remember some few years back, whenever i visit GT plaza Abuja and Benin branch, Butter cookies is one thing their caterers make sure i go home with.

Congratulations Mama, you shall carry to full term and deliver with ease, Amen!

cococandy:
Had some friends over for fufu, okra and oxtail stew.

The kids were picky of course. So rice and pasta on the side for the picky eaters.

We started with a side salad and wine and ended with my signature brownies topped with vanilla ice cream chocolate sauce.

They all look yum
