Assorted Melting Moments

As a perennial favourite, these buttery little treats will bring back memories of separating the biscuits and licking the cream.

Christmas Log Cake

I always wanted to make a decent Log Cake like other home bakers do. So after reading some tips and inspiration from those expert in M4M site. I decided to try making a Mini Log Cake using the clues and recipes that I collected. Actually when you start making it step by step it not as difficult as it looks.  I think the most challenging part is the spread the whipping cream or ganache evenly over the cake and assemble them to look like tree log. .

Lemon & Coffee Pork Chop

Saw this dish from a cookbook that I loan from the library. Decided to try out the recipe since we are coffee lovers and indeed the end result turns out well with hint of coffee fragrant, sweet and sour taste from the tomato sauce and tender bite of meat.
