KUIH BAKAR KENTANG

This is traditional kuih of Malaysia and Singapore, made of wheat flour, coconut milk, mashed potato and sugar then bake for at least 40 minutes. This kuih has so many versions and in the olden days, it is cooked using charcoal, the coconut itself is picked from our own garden, grated and squeezed by hand to obtain the coconut milk if compare with today's life it is so convenient, one click does it all. I have modified the recipe to make it eggless and used evaporated milk. Thanks Jun for sharing this recipe.

1 and 1/4 cup coconut milk/evaporated milk
2/3 cup sugar

2. Now add flour, butter, mashed potato, colouring and salt. Blend until smooth.

3. Pour into 7 inches greased pan and bake for 40-50 minutes @ 180 C.

COCOA AND OAT COOKIES

My children love to have some tidbit like biscuit, cake, muffin and the like for tea time. This is the reason why I had to bake regularly instead of buying ready made goodies from supermarket shelf.

One such recipe is Cocoa and Oat Cookies baked according to my taste.

1 and 1/2 cups all purpose flour
2 and 3/4 cups rolled oat
1 cup white sugar
3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa
1 cup butter
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1/4 cup milk

2. Cream butter and sugar until creamy, add milk and vanilla.

3. Combine together flour, cocoa, oat and baking powder, add the butter mixture, stir well.

4. Shape into a small ball then flatten slightly. Bake for 10-15 minutes.
