[Recipe] PebblePops for You!

Made with love Vday❤️

It's really not about money and it just the thought that counts..

SO...since I have been crazy over baking and stuffs, why dun I diy something for Hubb this year.. (when we just started dating, I had been doing DIY stuffs like photo frame and even cards and letters.. Those days!!)

AND~~~~~~~~~~~

Thank you for the Vday presents.. I love it so much especially the Soufeel necklace.. Love you!

Okay am glad that Hubb appreciate my thought.. Love ya.. (I totally will turn off when I put in effort and not being appreciated!! Well... I can't stop ppl doing that way and I just can't stop myself treating ppl good and not being appreciated.. Damnnn! 

That's life! so much about venting since this is a post full of LOVE..) 

Grab this sweet recipe from a Singapore blogger Rachell Tan (frankly speaking, she is so super young and I can say she is berry talented.. I admit ~ I quite like her style too.. )

Anyway... this is wat you will need.. 

Yes just this 2 simple ingredients ~ Fruity pebbles and marshmallows to make full of love... 

Heart it even more when "you dun require a oven to do this!!"

Step 1: Fill the fruity pebbles to about 1/3 of the brownie/cake pan

Step 2: Melt 20 pcs of marshmallows over berry LOW HEAT with some butter

*Remember to use a Non-stick pan

Step 3: Add in the fruit pebbles and slowly mix them together with the melted marshmallows and ensure they are well coated.

You should get a gooey mixture..

Yummmm... Looking berry yummy isn't it...

I already started munching here and there lo... Tell mi, how not to resist this...

Step 4: Fill them into the brownie/cake pan which you had used to fill the fruity pebbles, lined with baking paper (to ease removal...)

Gently smoosh the mixture till it fills up the entire pan evenly..

Step 5: Let it cool for about 3 mins, then remove the fruity pebbles from the pan once it's hardened a little bits..

Prepare some cookies cutters (mine is from Daiso for just $2!!)

Step 6: Now using the cookie cutters, cut the fruitly bars into shapes of your choices :D Of coz Heart shaped for Vday lah...

Step 7: Slot in satay sticks and prettify with ribbons..

All these not only easy to make ( I must stress on "no baking require " hahaha :p) and they are also berry instagram worthy..
Ain't they look great in photos !! Mostly importantly, they taste awesome sweeettt....

Super simple and easy for Vday if you are planning to give a lot of people presents...
Isn't it great!!
Whoopz.. I'm thinking to do this for Xmas already...

Berry first try - Vanilla chocolate chips cupcake

Not the first time baking, but first time using an oven to bake cupcake.. Normally I use air fryer and toaster to bake cookies and once try cupcake on toaster(was totally a failure!!)

Finally Hubb agreed to buy mi an oven, not those atas oven, at least it able mi to start my interest in baking..

And 

I berry excited and happy

IT'S A SUCCESS!

Even the most picky M say it tastes good.. (Only without the frosting cupcakes!)

But my piping/frosting technique failed badly.. 

Hahaha... 

Thanks to all the photo filters, dun looks that bad isn't it...?

Not sure why did the frosting so runny, so hard to pipe.. 

Lesson learn: Follow recipe exactly 100g means 100g, no more no less even it is just 100.1g..

I just dun wish to end it that way.. 

Decided to bake again the following night and followed just exactly...

It turned out pretty good even the frosting/piping turn out well and I'm satisfied with the outcome...

Of course, I had a wonderful Hubb who support mi all the way, he even praised the ugly cupcake ..

Thank you Hubb, at least this give mi strength to continue...

Love you..

Isn't it beautiful!!!
