Hello again friends! Like what I've said in my previous post , I'll be posting another blog post and this time its non other than a food post. Hahaha. I realised that I've been baking a lot this month cause I wanna curb my cravings. I posted a picture of a cupcake on my instagram and then I thought , why not just update my blog about this recipe too?

It's a healthier version of vanilla cupcakes with chocolate chips in it topped with a not so healthy frosting but you can also make this without the frosting cause I feel it tastes better without the frosting so I won't be including the recipe for the frosting in this time. You can actually search for a healthier version of frosting recipe to top it with and it all depends on yourself. The original recipe is from here .Hmm...okay.

It looked slightly darker like a chocolate cupcake but it's probably because of the sugar I used and I sorta overbaked it. :x haha lesson learnt ! Never fall asleep while your cupcakes are still baking in the oven . However , it still tastes good just a bit more harder but it's fine for me .

I realised that I'm still bad at frosting plus I didn't use a piping bag to pipe the frosting so I just used a spoon :D

Here are the list of ingredients and directions ;

Ingredients ;

• 1 plus 1/4 cups whole wheat flour

•1/2 teaspoon baking soda

•1 plus 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

• 1/4 teaspoon salt

• 2 eggs ( you can substitute it with egg replacer)

•3/4 sugar ( I used cane sugar )

• 1/2 cup milk of your choice

• 1/4 teaspoon apple cider vinegar *optional*

•2 teaspoons vanilla extract

•1/2 cup vege oil

•1/2 cup semi sweet chocolate chips coated with flour

• 1 tablespoon chia seeds *optional*

Directions ;

1.Preheat your oven to 350 F or 180 degree Celsius

2. Like your cupcake pan with cupcake liners

3. Mix together the flour , salt , baking powder and baking soda in a large mixing bowl .

4. Mix with Apple cider vinegar with the milk with a spoon for a couple of minutes .

5. Beat the eggs and the sugar together with an electric mixer or hand mixer then add in the vegetable oil and vanilla extract .

6. Add the milk and the rest of the ingredients into the large mixing bowl containing the flour and etc and mix them until they are combined and well mixed .

7. Add in the chia seeds and mix them until they are fully incorporated and scrape down the sides of the bowl to make sure everything is mixed in.

8. Coat your chocolate chips with flour and make sure you do that cause it prevents the chocolate chips to sink to the bottom of the batter when you bake it .

9. Add the chocolate chips into the batter and slowly mix them in with a spatula or large spoon .

10. Use a spoon or ice cream scoop to scoop your batter into the cupcake pan and fill them up until they are 3/4 full .

11. Bake them for 10-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cupcake comes out clean .

12. Leave them to cool down for 10-20 minutes before serving them and enjoy !

Do make sure you don't fall asleep like I did too :P hahaha!

And here you go :) hopefully you'll enjoy this '!

Oh and I'm currently obsessed with Taylor Swift's new album 1989 and I hinted my friends to get it for me as a birthday present :P There was a period of time where I disliked Taylor due to some stupid reasons but yeah I've fallen in love with her songs even more now and its amazing omg especially Blank Space and Style . Amazeballs. I've also searched for acoustic covers and so far Tyler Ward's cover of Blank Space is loveee ❤️❤️❤️

Not to mention, I've found an underrated youtuber who makes awesome covers and I'm still wondering why isn't he famous yet. His name is Travis-Atreo Graham, go search him up on youtube ! I love his cover of Thinking Out Loud, Style, Jealous , Blank Space and mostly everything.

I guess that's all for now then. See you soon! ;) x

Hello friends! Its currently midnight now and I just drank coffee and the caffeine is starting to kick in which resulted in me being nonsensically hyper right now hahaha omg I think I need help. I don't usually get hyper after drinking coffee plus I seldom drink coffee now so yeah , I don't know why this time the effect is really there :O Okay , I'll be posting two posts but not sure when is the next one coming up. You'll see the another post later but now I just wanna talk about a jelly mask that I bought few months ago which I still haven't finish using it yet cause I always forget or I'm just too lazy to apply it and this is not a sponsored post . yep. I was scrolling through Instagram one fine day when I suddenly stumbled across a picture of a famous blogger making a review about this jelly mask. As curious as I was, I clicked into the blog and read about her post to get more information about the mask cause I was going through the girly phase of life where I'm starting to take care of my skin more....etc etc and I'm still going through that phase. hahaha. I wanted to try this out cause I've never.... NEVER bought any skin care products except for cleansers but I've stopped using those commercial cleansers now cause I have sensitive skin so I prefer to go for those cleansers without those complicated chemical names and settle down for natural type of cleansers. I'm currently using Planet Barley's Ley Medic and I can really see the progress that's going on. I will blog about it soon when I have free time about the product but now let's just stick to this product first kay? So I got interested and wanted to try it out so I contacted the owner of the shop and the owner was really friendly and she even guided me on ways to use this mask plus her products are all genuine. I purchased the big bottle one cause I don't know, my instincts asked me to do so and I regretted nothing cause this mask is amazingly awesome super majestic glorious beautiful perfection. Let me brief you more about this product first.

This DMC deep cleansing mask is a jelly mask made in Taiwan that could easily help you to remove your blackheads, whiteheads and the impurities on your face. Plus, it will also help you to stablise your skin if you have sensitive skin and make your skin fairer and softer after using it by providing moisture to your skin which leaves your skin feeling as fresh as a daisy and as smooth as a baby's butt. However, if you have acne and big pores problem, this jelly mask can also help you to reduce it but it takes time. So don't expect fast results okay and you must be consistent while using it.

The ingredients of this product are ; Dist.Water.Glyceryl Polyacrylate. Witch Hazel Extract. Cucumber Extract.EGX-244(Wild Chamomile Extract/Roman Chamomile Extract/Cornflower Extract / ST John's Wort Extract/ Marygold Extract /Limetree Extract).Propylene Glycol. Bamboo Charcoal Powder. Methylisothiazolinone.Edetate Di-Sodium. Iodopropynyl butyl carbamate. Fragrance.

Since starting of this year , my diet and sleeping scheduled is literally screwed up which caused me to have a lot of acne problems especially on my forehead . MAJOR PROBLEM ON MY FOREHEAD. So when this jelly mask arrived at my house , I was thrilled and couldn't wait to try it . I used it at night before bed so it makes me feel fresher before going to bed and I use it like a few times a week . Not everyday though .

When I first opened this bottle , it released a scent that I'm not very fond of but I'm okay with it . It smells good just that I don't like that smell . You get what I mean ? Haha.

This is how it looks like inside and yeahs till left a lot cause lazy vany is lazy to apply but it's really useful especially during my exam period aka pimples taking over my face period .

When you open the bottle , there's a translucent plastic lid covering the jelly mask with this spatula on the lid . This makes it easier for you to apply and scrap off the mask and also for hygiene purposes .

So basically , how I use this jelly mask is

First..things first I'm da realest . lol joking hahah . Okay .

1. Wash your fash with your own cleanser and dry your face

2. Apply the jelly mask on your face by using the spatula and make it not too thick or too thin. Just right in between.

3. Wait for 20-30 mins before scraping off the mask by using the spatula provided .

4. Apply your skin care products next such as toner or whatever cream that you're using .

5. SLEEP hahaha ! You can ignore this but yeah I mostly apply it during night time so that's what I basically do after apying the mask .

I can personally say that this mask really makes my skin feel fresher and softer and notice the pimples on my forehead and near my nose bridge ? Yeah ... They thought it's their territory so they're taking over my face now .

And be prepared , this is my chubby bare face that's full with stubborn pimples on my forehead and my panda eyes . Hahah so yeahhhh.

I honestly love this mask cause mann it makes my face so soft and smooth it's like touching a baby's butt . Who doesn't want to have a smooth and fair skin anyway ? Besides , this mask actually helped me to reduce the redness of my acne on the next day cause I woke up with a much nicer face as in the skin and brighter face. This is my first time using jelly mask and I can really tell you that this product satisfy my needs. I've tried those sheet mask before and they didn't work well on me cause I woke up having a bigger pimple on my face the day after. So I will really recommend this product to those jelly mask lovers! If you're interested in purchasing this mask , you can head on to here or here or you can even find her through Wechat; Sheryn87 or...here too!.

Thats all for now. Byeeee x.

Hello people ! I'm back with another healthy dessert recipe post before I'm going to be MIA soon until my SPM is over or when I'm free to blog. Yesterday I woke up with a toothache at my right upper tooth at the back and I'm guessing it's because of my sinus cause the ache is caused from my nerves and I do brush my teeth every day and night okay haha. I had no mood to study at all because of my toothache so I've decided to just bake something to make use of my studying time and not just laze around watching game plays and YouTube videos. I was hesitating to bake cause I'm feeling kinda lazy and I'm lazy and I'm lazy and I just wanna roll around like a potato I am while having my phone on one hand but then I decided to ask my mom whether I should just bake or sleep and she suggested that I should bake . So baking it is then !

Before I begin with the ingredients and directions , I actually wanted to create my own healthy recipe so I was testing out on the ingredients and stuff then throwing everything into the mixer , praying that it will turn out well and delicious. Notice how the edges of the cake are kinda folded and not straight ? That's cause of the parchment paper . Note to self , never use parchment paper to bake cake unless I'm only using it to put at the base of the cake pan or I want uneven edges.

Here are the list of ingredients that you will need !

Ingredients ;

•2 cups whole wheat flour

•1 cup of oat flour or you can use all purpose flour

•4 eggs and you can use egg replacer if you want .

•2/3 cups of coconut oil/vegetable oil

•1/2 cups of raisins (Optional and I used Sultanas)

•4 ripe bananas

•1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

•1 teaspoon salt

•2 teaspoon baking soda

•1 teaspoon baking powder

•1 tablespoon chia seed (optional)

•1 cup of sugar ( any type that you desire) if you want healthier ones then I suggest you use stevia ? Haha

•1 cup chocolate chips (Optional)

Note ; you can always add walnuts if you want to by replacing the chocolate chips with walnuts .

Directions ;

1. Preheat your oven to 175 degree Celsius or 350 F and line your cake/bread tin with parchment paper or you can grease them or spray them with non-stick spray.

2. Extract enough oat flour by blending the oats. You can use any type of oats you want .

3. Place all your ingredients except the chocolate chips and raisins into a large mixing bowl and mix them up together until they are fully incorporated then fold your chocolate chips and raisins in slowly and mix them well .

4. Pour the batter into the cake/bread tin and lightly knock them on the table to make sure that they spread out evenly .

5. Bake for 55-60 mins or until when a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean then take the cake out and leave it to cool for about 15 minutes .

6. Chill in the fridge if you want it to cool faster or else just cut it and indulge yourself in it .

So there you have it hahah . I honestly feel that I added too many chocolate chips but my sister told me that there's no such thing as too many chocolate chips hahah. But really though , I think it's too many cause my cake end up looking like a huge chocolate chip cookie

Anyway , my cake was a success ! My family said it was delicious and they ate nearly 3/4 of it after I took it out and let them cool down or about 20 mins before cutting them.

This is how it looked like after it came out from the oven and ...

.....

........

..........

..............

.................

This is how it looked like in less than 30 minutes haha. Just a gentle reminder , if you're more of a health extremist , I suggest you to not add in the chocolate chips cause it's really sweet but you can always add a bit cause HELLOOO IT IS AFTER ALL CHOCOLATE CHIPS and who doesn't love chocolate chips ? I know I do.

I'm really satisfied with the outcome although there are still things that I need to patch up the next time I bake this . That's all for now . See you guys soon ! ❤️

Hey guys ! A week of SPM torture has finally passed and seriously the questions were full of HOTS especially moral paper . I've actually wasted all my time to memorise the definisi but yet none came out :') Maths was tough cause the questions were tricky but Praise the Lord that I know how to answer and I sorta screwed up for English :/ BM was kinda okay I guess ? But oh well , I'm now left with 2 more weeks. Yay 2 more weeks to freedom ! Okay back to topic , so on the day before SPM I've actually baked some cookies while others are busy reading Komsas haha and to be honest , I don't really know what I was baking cause I literally just threw everything in .

I was craving for cookies for quite some time especially chocolate chip cookies and my friend CY actually baked some chocolate chip cookies a week ago I guess ? I've only eaten 3 of them and I'm like no, this fat girl needs more cookies in her tummy . So I've decided to bake them cause I'm kinda like that type of person who is like "I can die if I don't fix my craving" so yeah haha!

So in the morning , I took out all the ingredients to only realised that I'm out of chocolate chips which leads me to substitute it with chocolate chunks. Before starting , I've actually googled on healthy recipes for chocolate chip cookies and most of them require really expensive ingredients such as coconut oil, almond milk , soy milk , coconut flour, stevia and etc etc which I uhhh...don't have so I was like ahhhh screw it. I'll just use whatever I have with me right now .

Here are the list of ingredients .

• 1/2 cup butter

• 1 cup brown sugar * I used 1/2 and it was kinda sweet due to the raisins and Choco chunks*

•3 tablespoons granulated sugar *i used none haha*

•1 egg

• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

•1/2 teaspoon of salt ( don't have to add in if you're using salted butter)

•1/4 cup of whole wheat flour or you can use all purpose flour

•1 cup plus 3/4 cup oat flour

• 1/4 teaspoons of instant coffee

• 1 bar of Hershey's semi sweet chocolate baking bar (can add as many as you want depending on yourself)

• 1 cup of raisins ( optional ) you can also use walnuts

• 1/2 teaspoons of chia seeds ( can add as much as you want )

Okay , it might not be as healthy as you think it is because of the butter and chocolate chunks but hey , at least it's healthier than most chocolate chip cookies right ? Just that this is using chocolate chunks . Heh

MOVING FORWARD !

Directions ;

1. Before you start anything , blend your oats (you can use instant , quick cook or rolled oats totally up to you . I used quick cook oats ) in a food processor or a blender to get your oat flour.

2. Preheat your oven to 350 F. or 180 degree Celsius .

3. Cream or whisk together your butter , vanilla extract , egg and sugars until it is light and fluffy .

4. Add all your dry ingredients together with the wet ingredients and mix them together until they are fully incorporated.

5. Break your chocolate bar into pieces depending on how big you want them and then add them into the mixture together with your raisins and chia seeds.

6. Line your baking sheets or pan with parchment paper/cookie sheets or spray them with non-stick spray .

7. Use a tablespoon to scoop the dough onto the baking sheets prolly not so near to each other cause they sorta expand.

8. Bake them for 10-15 minutes then take them out and leave them for 10 mins or more to let them cool and cook a little longer .

And there you go ! :) it's a very soft and chewy type of cookie so don't expect it to be those hard and crunchy ones . It's important that you don't overbake them or it'll turn into a disaster haha okay wait I'm just exaggerating but yeah , you don't wanna overbake your cookies am I right ? *winks*

I'm really impressed with the outcome and it tastes really good and not so sweet plus the chia seeds just made everything taste better. I've made around 14 cookies depending on how big you shape them but yeah I like my cookies big hahaha!

Not to mention , my family finished all of the cookies on that day itself . I admit , I do ate a lot but yeah... I don't care :P

I honesty can't wait till SPM is over so I can healthify more desserts and bake more and do everything and sleep and hibernate for 10 years and transform into a potato .Jkjk. I just wanna get rid of my reference books , text books , exercise books and etc so that I'll have more space for my novels and other books heheh! Oh well , I shall end this post here to continue my series of 2 Broke Girls before starting on Sejarah *inserts monkey covering eye emoji* .

Bye guys ! ;)
