Well, I know I have not been updating in this blog for a long time… more than 6 months already. That’s mainly because of the online bakery business. I don’t think I should be sharing my ‘secret recipe’ of the cakes that I was selling, that’s why I found it hard to update.

BUT!! I have decided since yesterday to close down the online bakery, simply because I find it really BORING! Before having that bakery, I hardly reproduce the same cake unless it is under extremely popular demand, but that’s not to the extent like what I have been experiencing with this bakery. For some cakes that are more popular, I had to produce the same one, at the rate of 3-4 per week during festive seasons. Now I hear the word “Ribena Cheesecake” I wanna puke! And due to this, I hardly have the time to experiment new cakes — which is what I love the most about baking.

Now that I have closed down the business, I am going to resume what I like most – experimenting new stuff and share about them here. ^_^

Here is a very refreshing and easy to make Lemon Bars recipe. I had made this twice, not for selling but for own consumption. So it speaks for itself.

LEMON BARS
Ingredients
Base
1 cup butter
1/3 cup sugar
2 cup flour
1/4 tsp salt

Lemon Custard
4 eggs
2.5 lemon’s juice, more than 1/2 cup
Zest of 3 lemons
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup flour

Method
Base
1. Pre-heat oven to 180C.
2. Mix all the ingredients well.
3. Line the mixture onto the base of a 9″x13″ pan
4. Bake at 180C for 20 min

Filling
1. Mix all ingredients well.
2. When base is ready, pour filling over the base and continue baking for another 20 min or until it is set.
3. Dust with sugar powder as deco.

TIPS: It is better to over bake the base than the filling. Watch out the filling very carefully not to burn it (very easily).
