lil kitchen helper
Ini adalah projek for raya 2007. found the recipe in allrecipes.com. despite the sempoi ingredients, it actually taste good! the original recipe minus item no 4, the outcome tasted like butter cookies. Chenta suggested we add ground almond to give a nutty flavour and wallaaaa!
i wanted to frost them (the hearts) with white n dark choc but my cooking choc played lumpy on me. menci sgt! next time try lagik....

my lil helper kepenatan!
