看到我 今天blog上的照片,就可以联想到我这两天的休息日是怎样过的-都就献给了翻糖。昨天答应了同事给她做了一组Alice In The Wonderland 送给她的朋友当生日礼物。今天,我和Bec两人奋斗努力的做了50个 cupcakes 来义卖要为wards圣诞筹款给病人买圣诞礼物。自己又另外做Xmas sugar cookies备用(这个星期天的圣诞集餐用)。
我和Bec约了今天十点钟开工,本来很有心思的慢慢做,后来时间很快的一份一秒溜走,,她又要敢场去赴约,两人开始有点紧张了,从很有心思做到打战般的速度,两人还是用了五个下时来完成这项富有意义的工作。明天,年轻的Bec很乐意的要穿上圣诞小姐装去卖糕呢。 哈哈!Thank You Bec.
P.S. Mickey n Minnie Mouse 是特别给Bernice做的,记得那天她告诉我她想做米奇老鼠给她的宝贝,我告诉她我会在今天试一试。Bernice,希望你喜欢。
Sugar Cookies
Ingredients:
325g sifted all-purpose
flour
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking
powder
220 grams unsalted butter,
at room temperature
200 grams sugar
1 large eggs (straight from
refrigerator)
1 teaspoons (10
mL) pure vanilla extract
Method:
1. In large bowl, sift
together flour, salt, and baking powder. Set aside.
2. Use an electric mixer to
cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in eggs.
3. Add flour mixture and
mix on low speed until thoroughly combined. Stir in vanilla extract.
4. Remove dough from bowl,
make a ball, and place on a large piece of plastic wrap on counter.
5. Wrap the sides of wrap
over the ball, then press down with the palm of your hand and make a disc about
2″ thick.
6. Chill disc of dough for
about one hour.
7. Remove the disc and
remove plastic wrap. On a lightly flour bench top, place 2 wooden dowels on
either side of your dough to ensure even thickness when you roll out the dough.
8. Preheat your oven to
180C. Cut your shapes using the cutters of your choice. Place the cookies into
freezer for 15 minutes before baking. Then bake 10-12 minutes, or until edges
are golden brown.
10. Cool sheets on wire
racks for 10 minutes, then gently remove cookies and place on wire racks to
finish cooling.
