A lovely handmade gift and some brownie baking

Thank you Tammy.  I received a lovely handmade gift from Tammy of  t's daily treasures.  Its a crocheted dish cloth.  Its crossed the seven seas and reached me from USA.  And she took out time to send a little gift while on a holiday there.  That makes it more lovely. I will preserve this and not use it as a dish cloth cause hand made gifts are precious.  May be I'll use it as a base for some dolls Oh! there's a handmade card too.  

Here....

I had some cake baking fun too.  My time tested brownie recipe.  My friend Minu gave me this recipe and I have made it umpteen times.  A no hassle cake.  It can be made in a jiffy.

Let me share the recipe.

Ingredients :

Refined flour  2 cups

Powdered Sugar 1 1/2 cups

Curd   3/4 cup

Oil      3/4 cup

Baking powder 3/4 Teaspoon

Cocoa powder 3 - 4 teaspoons

Mix all ingredients in a bowl 

Add a little aerated water (soda) for consistancy



Pour it into the baking bowls and I put some in cup cake bowls too :) Sprinkle some cashew nuts.

Bake it in an OTG  at 200 degrees for 45 mins.  In a microwave it takes approx 7-10 mins.

and its done :) Simple isn't it?

One can decorate the brownie with icing too.

Here's one I baked for my daughter's last b'day

Have a nice week end.  I have a packed week ahead.  Though its a long weekend, my little one's exams are round the corner.  So its study time with few fun moments here and there.
