Molten Chocolate cake


I miss my sisters (this applies to both my biological sisters and girlfriends)

and because i miss them so, this is for them
ate kay, gelli, diane, tian & worthy


molten chocolate cake
3 eggs
1/2 c sugar
1/2 cup flour
1 stick butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
8 oz semi-sweet chocolate

preheat oven at 400F

in a double broiler melt together butter and chocolate. I used my Bela's steamer as a makeshift double broiler and it worked hehe. set aside

beat eggs, sugar & vanilla

add flour and mix well until batter is smooth, lump free and shiny

grease ramekins and fill with batter

Colorful Cinnamon Meringues


Oh what a delight when upon checking on today's top 9 the first picture i saw were of pretty cinnamon meringues from Scarletta Bakes
I have been fond of merengues since i was a little kid but have never tried making my own. I never realized how easy they were. and how cute they could be.







CINNAMON MERINGUES
adapted from Scarletta Bakes

6 large egg whites
1 tsp. cream of tartar
1 c. confectioners’ sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon (the original recipe called for Canela, which i didnt have)

just mix cream of tartar, cinnamon and egg whites and in a mixer with whisk attachment
until frothy
add sugar and continue whisking til soft peaks form

bake in a baking sheet lined baking tray at 200F for 25 minutes or until meringues are slighty browned.

enjoy
