For afternoon tea on Thurs, i baked us some butter cookies with mini m&m choc!
I didnt do everything from scratch. I kinda cheated by purchasing Betty Crocker's box of m&m cookies easy-to-bake flour mix, which came complete with a packet of miniature sized m&m chocs. All i had to do was to add in 1 egg and 1/3 cup softened butter, then knead the mixture until a dough forms. As simple as ABC!
I pinched a small amount of dough, rolled it into a ball, placed it onto the baking tray (lined with baking paper) and gave it a gentle push on the top to flatten it slightly. I decided to bake 2 types of cookies, plain cookies and cookies with m&m chocs.

My very 1st batch of cookies! Before i took this pic, i had already stolen a cookie, hence the empty space on the 1st row from the right ^_^
Da-dang! Mission accomplished! We enjoyed these cookies with some coffee (for me!) and horlicks (for my honey!)

Hi mica,
So do I! I baked cookies yesterday! hehe
You cook most of the time!!! How often do you cook?!
I don't cook every meal... and we eat out on holidays... but recently, we found take-outs save a lot, so we do that once in a while. I simply serve the food on our plates which look like home-cooked meal. I will post about it someday because we have many delicious take-outs in Japan and I want to share that info, too :D
hello Mica! those cookies looks so funny!=D actually i thought the m&m's would melt wahaha since i've been with my boyfriend we cooked a lot together but mostly it's he cook and i just help him with wash the veggies or something like that wahaha XD i'm happy that my bf can cook XD but i should really learn it =P so i really love your blog! =D you explained everything very clear! so i can learn a lot from your blogposts! =D thankyouu! xx
Those cookies look delish! I want to reach into my screen and grab all the ones with chocolate in them hahahahahaahaahaha
Most places here that serve afternoon tea will provide a box of leaves for you to choose from but they usually have a limited range of teas =( You really have to find a highly specialized place if you want a large range to choose from! Oh yes! Microwaved scones don't have nice crunchy steamy affect as freshly baked ones do! I love hot scones, hot enough to burn me!
hahaha as for bf, he wasn't mad I picked such a bitter tea, I mean he did LET me pick it =P hahaha no I don't think your violent, speaking of violent Im actually fairly violent with my bf, I constantly smack him and hit his arm, of course he never does the same to me though lol do you hit your bf playfully often?
