a lot of things happened since my last post... i bought me a new toy... i am now a certified owner of a nikon d5000... it wasn't really planned, but, what the heck, i still got one.
i also made red velvet cupcakes again and they turned out pretty well... wanna see??? here they are:
so after baking the entire day followed by one toxic shift, it was time to fly to Puerto Princesa for some birthday weekend R&R... it was an amazing experience, it sure was one memorable birthday.
and like any other story, it must come to an end. it was time to go home, but before that, i had to grab me some cashews from palawan. the following day i thought, i'd put the cashews into use by making some butterscotch treats that i can bring to the office. it was the first time i'll be baking from scratch and not the usual off-the-rack mixes in groceries.
so here's the recipe i used:
BUTTERSCOTCH BARS
Ingredients:
1/2 cup margarine or butter
2 cups brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
2 cups all purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup shredded coconut (optional)
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Procedure:
1. Melt butter over low heat. Remove from heat and add the sugar. Add eggs and vanilla. Make sure eggs are well blended into the sugar.
2. Sift together dry ingredients and add to the brown sugar mixture. Mix gently but thoroughly.
3. Spread on greased 13.5 x 10.5 x 1 inch baking dish. Bake at 350 deg F for about 25 minutes.
Notes:
Careful not to burn the butter during melting.
Make sure to pack the brown sugar firmly into the measuring cup.
how did they turn out? here they are...
