Banana Chocolate Chip Softie (cake-like cookie)

Another way not to waste over-riped bananas. Not an ordinary cookie, not a cake, but a cake-like cookie. Mmm... ...又一個處理過熟香蕉的好方法。不是一般的曲奇，不是蛋糕。。。。

The moment i had the first bite, straightaway fell in LOVE with it: the bananay-cake-like cookie. 第一口就愛上它，濃香蕉味，像蛋糕的曲奇餅。

It really put a big smile on my face while seeing my babies (hubby and 2 bb) enjoying the softies and keep nodding their head with a face telling me how satisfied they were.
最開心不過的，就是看到我的3寶，一直吃一直點頭贊好吃

Chocolate Icecream Banana Cake

08.08.08 was a very special day for me + hubby, that was the day we started our relationship, and therefore, 0808 is our "paktor anniversary" ^_^

I have made this cake to celebrate this very special day:
❤Chocolate Icecream Banana Cake❤

Nice mou??

Look easy, but not really (for me), maybe due to i was slow and very particular to small small thing, so i end up standing in the kitchen with stress for long, hahaha...

Ingredients (cake):

(A) 7 egg yolks, 100ml corn oil, 100g fresh milk, 150g all purpose flour

(B) 7 egg whites, 120g caster sugar

Method (cake):

1) mix well (A)

2) beat (B) till it reaches hard peak

3) fold (B) gently into (A) in 3 batches

4) pour batter into a 8" square mould (if you wanto make a round one, then use a 8" round mould)

5)  bake in a preheated oven at 170°, for 45minutes

**Prepare some banana slices too**

Ingredients (icecream):

❀ 200g icecream mix, chocolate flavor 

❀ 560g full cream milk

Method (icecream):

❀ mix both ingredients and beat in high speed for 5-6 minutes, or until it reaches 1.5 or double in size. 

Making the Chocolate Icecream Banana Cake:

1) cut the cake smaller. In fact if u have bigger square tin, then u can just put the cake in the bigger tin. Not too big, 1-2 inch bigger just nice

2) now, cut the cake horizontally into half, and put one slice into the center of the bigger tin

3) pour the icecream to cover all over the slice of cake. 

4) lay some banana slices on the cake layer (refer picture at the bottom) 

5) repeat step 3

6) put the other slice of cake, and repeat step 3

7) now pour icecream to the side/fill up the gap.

8) freeze the cake for 1/2hour before decoration

9) enjoy the cake after frozen overnight ❣

2 eggs + 1 banana = Simple Pancake

2eggs + 1 banana = Pancakes

Yea, that simple.
No oil, no flour, no baking powder, no butter needed.

1)  Just mash the banana with spoon or fork.
2)  add in 2eggs, mix well.
3)  Heat up a non stick pan,  with medium fire
4) scoop batter into the non stick pan. U can control how big the pancake u want.
5) around 1minute or more,  you should see the outer ring of the pancake is cooked, and flip over the pancake, and cook for another 1minute

The pancakes are good enough to eat on its own, but best to serve with fruit jam, butter, or peanut butter ^_^
