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

Milo Chocolate Chip Cake

♡Another milo cake♡

Found the recipe here , but i did some changes to the ingredients, as i dont have self raising flour, so i have used super fined flour instead. I also replaced the sunflower oil with virgin coconut oil ;)

When i post up the photo to fb, a friend asked is the texture like huat-kueh? means发糕，as she saw one of the slices in photo look "rubbery" to her (maybe), and that slice was actually the one from baking tin edge, which to my surprise to see the baking tin "looked so clean" after i took out the cake (except the bottom).

The texture is definitely moist, and abit chewy (same as the original recipe stated), but when comes to the very next morning, the cake become so much lighter, so moist and its so yummylicious. My hubby and daughter love it so much (",) 

I wonder will the cake looks taller if i followed the original recipe, using self raising flour?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ingredients:
✪ 1 cup super fined flour 特幻粉，原食譜用自發粉
✪ 3/4 cup castor sugar 幻糖
✪ 1 tsp vanilla extract 香草精
✪ 3 tbsp virgin coconut oil 植物油，我用virgin coconut oil, 健康
✪ 3 tbsp milo powder (milo 粉) 
✪ 1 tbsp cocoa powder 可可粉
✪ 1/2 cup chocolate milk 巧克力奶
✪ 2 eggs 雞蛋

Method:
1) Preheat oven at 180° 預熱烘爐
2) Beat all ingredients together till well mixed. 把全部材料混好
3) Pour batter into baking tin (greased with butter and top with flour) 倒進烤盤
4) Bake for 30minutes or until skewer comes out clean. 烘30分鐘

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yes, that simple ❣ 太簡易了吧，haha ^_^

Butterless Chocolate Chip Muffin

Baked these butterless chocolate chip muffins, for SSL 修成林 charity sale (they having this 七月節 one whole month charity sale).

This is the second time i baked for charity, first time was banana and chocolate rice muffin. If to compare both recipe, i would say this butterless chocolate chip muffin is not as good as banana and chocolate rice muffin. The texture is more densed, which i have been told by the fb friend who shared the recipe. 

For this round i was able to contribute only 16 muffins, due to shortage of sugar and flour, arrgghh, i thought i have enough for at least 45 muffins, so i learnt a lesson, always check ingredients stock one day before baking, and always stock up :)

Ingredients: 

• 3 cups all-purpose flour 

• 4 tsp baking powder

• 1/2 tsp salt

• 2 eggs, room temperature 

• 1 cup granulated sugar

• 1 cup fresh milk

• 1/2 cup vegetable oil

• 1 tsp vanilla essense

• 1 cup chocolate chips(i used double color chocolate chip)

Method: 

1) Preheat oven to 170°. 

2) In a mixing bowl, sift in together flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon. 

3) In a bigger bowl, whisk together eggs and sugar until combined. Mix in milk, oil, and vanilla. 

4) Fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients and mix everything together. 

5) The batter will be quite thick and abit lumpy too. Fold in the chocolate chips.

6) Divide batter among prepared muffin cups.

7) Bake at 170° for 5 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 160°.and continue to bake for 20 minutes until tops are lightly golden.
