Post a Comment On: Wake Up and Smell the Cake

When daddy is away, we bake! HAHA. 
Bake we did, while daddy's plane was taxiing. I wanted to try florentine almond cookies for the longest time, and finally I did! And it's almost finished now too. Thinking of making more tonight.
Super simple! I bought the premix from Phoon Huat quite some time ago. Also bought almond slivers, pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds.

I used this recipe here, and here's the ingredients I used.

70g almond flakes
25g pumpkin seeds
35g sunflower seeds
50g florentine powder

Line an at least 9x9 inch tray (I used a 9 inch round tray) with baking paper. Mix all the ingredients together and lay flat on the baking tray. Bake at 160 degrees Celsius for 14 minutes.

They told to cut right after taking out from the oven, but it hasn't set yet so I didn't. Once cooled I broke it into shards. SEDAP ok! Feel less guilty eating this compared to a cookie. HAHAHAHA. Didn't get much though.

And after the kids saw me bake, they wanted to bake as well. And insisted on it! So I made a batch of chocolate chip cookies. My boy wanted to roll his into worms, for his bestie Uncle. Hahaha.

Baked and ate at the same time. Princess ate the cookie dough too. Haha. Evening well spent! :)
