Prune Layer Cake


很高兴有三天的假期,那么我就可以做很多自己要做的事务。比如逛街,和姐姐喝茶,还有我做我一直很期待要再度尝试的layer cake。 那天Jane说她忘了带一些prune layer cake 给我,哎哟我好失望啊!我何尝也不是这样,之前打包了一些东西给她,但是到头来还是漏了一些,现在还好好的在冰箱里摆着。她每次都投诉 她的记性最近很差,我想我也好不到那里去啦!那个糕 没有吃到真的好像很不甘愿,回家想来想去,还是再提起勇气再度挑战kuih lapis吧!今天做这个糕,我把糖份大量减少了,至少给自己小小的安慰,15粒蛋却是低糖的layer cake喔。。(自我安慰了吧!)

昨天做了咸的,今天就上个甜的和大家分享吧!
