Chocolate Truffles

Truffles - the word makes me drool.. So delicious and so picture perfect.. When we look at them in the shops we are stunned by their beautiful appearance and also by their taste.. Mouth melting and sinfully delicious.. You cannot stop with one.. Making them at home seems intimidating, but it is so simple and effortless.. But definitely there are some points that needs to be kept in mind to ensure good quality ones!!. I got this recipe from here..

 

 

 

Eggless Strawberry Muffin - Without Egg, Without Butter

I love baking.. and yes if that comes with ease of work, then I am happy.. My daughter was super excited to see this pink color muffins and she was all praise for me!!! Was it a win win?? Yes and no.. The reason I say no is due to the amount of sugar in it and also I have added few drops of food color.. I am not a big fan of using food colors, but sometimes I do use it.. Try this muffin which is very light in texture and also makes a perfect one for the kid's lunch box, party food. Sharing this for this month's BM - Holiday food.

 

Eggless Stained Glass Cookies–Eggless Cookies

Look at them and just stare... That is my one liner for this very adorable looking cookie.. I bookmarked this cookie here immediately when I saw it.. The original recipe had 1 egg and I have used the egg replacer here. They have a good shelf life of around a week to 10 days if stored in the fridge. I also saw some YouTube videos for the method of making it... But again took everything and did my own!!! This one is a sinfully delicious one and you cannot stop with a few!!! very addictive!! With December close and the baking season has kick started with full swing.. Enjoy this delicious cookies - it is fun both making them and sharing them.. They also make great edible gifts!!! I am back to BM after a long time and feels good to join back...
