Cake-kies

Today is a fruitful Saturday, unlike most weekends when i just sit on by behind & play games throughout the whole afternoon and then again at night.

What activities i did which is so fruitful, you may ask. Well, first of all, i spent it with SQ, and second of all, for the first time ever, we made cookies together. Chocolate chip cookies.

We've done quite a number of couple activities together, but we've never gone into baking before, and finally today, we've done it. That feels kind of like we've moved on to another stage of our relationship again. That actually feel pretty lovely.

Anyway, after buying ingredients from the nearby Tesco, we came back to my place, move out all the tools we need for the baking & the preparations, placed all the ingredients we bought from supermarket on the table, and we started work.

As a reminder, we are making chocolate chip cookies.

First we beat the butter with brown sugar until smooth, then we added in the vanilla essence, and then egg, and then milk and finally flour & the chocolate chips.

Roadblock #1: How to put onto the pan?

I find this kind of difficult to do since the dough was very soft and sticky. So in the end we just use a spoon and drop all the cookies dough onto a pan and put the pan into the oven.

Roadblock #2: It's soft!

I thought the cookies will hardened up after it cooled down. Apparently not entirely true in my case. The outer crust is crunchy, just like how cookies should be but the inside.......it's not undercooked, just not hard.

So, instead of getting cookies, i called my result a cake-kies, since it's like eating cake.

Anyhow, it's a very fruitful day spent with SQ.
