Butter Cookies

Salam Ramadhan to all, it has been a while since my last post, so i'm here to post a totally-worth-trying recipe of Butter Cookies.

Here's a sneak peak of how it looks like :D

By the way, trust me it tastes better than it looks like! :)

You should have a try too since Raya is just around the corner. This cookies are really easy to be made and most probably you already have the ingredients at home :D

10 oz butter
1 tablespoon butter oil *optional, its fine if you dont have it, but it does tastes better with it
1 egg yolk
3 oz + 1 tablespoon icing sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
11 oz all purpose flour
4 oz corn starch
2 tablespoons full cream milk
1.2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method :

Cream butter with butter oil, sugar, egg yolk, salt and vanilla extract until fluffy not watery.
Add milk and mix well.

Fold in multipurpose flour and corn starch. Mix until dough become soft and not sticky.

Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius or 350 Fahrenheit. Place the cookie dough in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes to let it set and easier to roll. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll dough to 1/4 inch thick and cut it using cookie cutters. And just to share, if you want a better cookies shape, after the placing the cookies on the baking sheet, place it in the refrigerator for another 10 mins. This will firm up the dough so the cookies will maintain the shape when baked!

Bake for 15 minutes, or untill cookies are light brown :) Let it cool on a wire rack.

P/s In my case, i didnt use any cookie cutters, i just piped in the dough straight to the baking sheets and you can create any shapes you like ;)

Happy trying!

Red Velvet Cupcakes! :)

I find this recipe better than the recipe I have posted before, the cake is more fluffy and moist, and instead of using butter, this recipe uses oil. The rich crown of Cream Cheese Frosting makes the Red Velvet Cupcakes even better! Happy tryingg :) 

Ingredients for Red Velvet Cake:
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
2 eggs, room temperature
1 1/2 cups oil
1 cup buttermilk, room temperature
2 tsp white distilled vinegar
2 tsp vanilla
1 tbsp red food coloring

Ingredients for Cream Cheese Frosting:
8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 cups powdered (confectioners) sugar, sifted
2 tbsp cream (double cream)

Directions for the Cake Batter :

Prepare the dry ingredients. In a bowl combine flour, brown sugar, white sugar, salt, baking soda, baking powder and cocoa powder. Use a whisk to remove any lumps and combine thoroughly.

Make the batter. In an electric mixer, beat eggs and slowly stream in oil until emulsified. Add vanilla, white vinegar and red food coloring. Combine well and slowly add the dry ingredients. The batter will thicken; keep mixing on low. With the mixer running, stream buttermilk into batter slowly. Scrape down sides of bowl and mix until thoroughly combined.

Bake. Distribute batter to prepared cake or cupcake pans and bake in a preheated 350(F) oven: 20-25 minutes for cupcakes; 35-40 minutes for cakes. Allow cake to cool completely before frosting.

Directions for Cream Cheese Frosting :

Prepare the Cream Cheese Frosting. In an electric mixer, combine cream cheese and butter. Begin adding powdered sugar, creaming thoroughly after each addition. Mix in vanilla and cream. Continue adding powdered sugar until frosting has a pearly sheen and thick, gooey yet spreadable consistency.
