Homemade Sweetheart Cake 自製老婆餅
Yeaaaaaaaah!!! Finally I made it!!!!! I been planing to make this and finally I made it! And it is super delicious!!!!!!! (sorry for my excitement 😉 )

No-Knead Raisin & Walnut Bread 免搓提子合桃麵包
So…the topic of ”no-knead” bread is very attractive right?! 😉 Yes, you don’t need a bread machine, you don’t need to knead bread and you will still have a very super tasty bread!
Simply mix the dough together, then let it rest for 12 hours or more, let it rise slowly. The trick is to bake in a dutch oven, trap the air and make it like a steam method. Then you will have a very crispy crust and soft bread inside. With the raisins and walnuts give the sweetness and chewiness. It is a perfect bread! Serve with butter, Enjoy!

This time, I make the coconut mochi cake originally from Hawaii. With the coconut flavour, sooooo chewy and delicious. I made it with mini muffin tin, that make it bite size, or you can make in cake sheet pan, then cut into small pieces. Try and hope you love it too!
