The Most Dangerous Chocolate Cake Recipe in the World!

What will you do when you're craving for chocolate cake?

a.Do nothing
b.Sleep and dream eating it
c.Make one in 3-minute time!


In 3-minute time?! SERIOUSLY?! YES! I got this recipe from yoyomax (search in youtube). So, why does it called the most dangerous chocolate cake? Because it's so easy to make and takes only a few ingredients that you can make it anytime! Here's the recipe :D


This is my sister helping me in the kitchen :D
Ingredients :


-4 tbsp flour
-4 tbsp sugar
-2 tsp  cocoa powder
-1 egg
-3 tbsp milk
-3 tbsp oil (I use vegetable oil)
-a dash of vanilla extract 
-3 tbsp chocolate chips (optional)


Method :

-Mix the dry ingredients with spoon (flour, sugar, cocoa).
-Add egg, milk, oil, and vanilla extract. Stir until it forms a smooth batter.
-Stir in chocolate chips
-Place mixture in a microwave-safe mug and microwave on high for 3 minutes.
-Serve it warm with ice cream, chocolate sauce, whipped topping or anything you think will work.

*You can mix it directly in the mug but make sure it's big enough

This is how it looks when it's done :

YIPPPPIIIEE!
I kinda over-filled the batter. And it messes up my microwave a bit. My sister wanted to make another one and I let her. This time, I used a bigger mug and it turned out better! 

The second mug I used. I didn't use the lid.
Happy 3-minute-chocolate-microwave-cake-making!

Easter Celebration (2) / Beverly's Birthday


Part two for Easter Celebration! This is quite late I guess :S I have no time in previous week since I have 4 final tests. It's from the government. Now and for the next (almost) two months is school holiday! 

So, this is how the story goes. After the whole Easter Event's finished, my friends and I rushed to a supermarket to buy some supplies for Beverly's Birthday surprise. Her birthday was on April 9th. We bought flour, balloons (which we blew up all at car on the way to her house)it was rabbit shaped (weird..), and a pack of breads as her birthday cake.


Then we borrowed her kitchen to make her "cake".

Beverly was taking a nap when we sing the song "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" to surprise her. This is the list of things we've done to her:

-We throw her flour bombs
-We shower her in front of her house
-We (accidentally) helped her water her plants.

We had a meal at McDonald's then. It was fun! Happy birthday Beverly! :D

Easter Celebration at School (1)

Today my school held a church service to celebrate Easter. Then later in the afternoon, the student council organized some competitions. They were baseball (kasti in Indonesia), diorama making (which I joined), collecting eggs (for 7 and 8 grade, too bad.. I really wanted to participate too D: ), and photography. 

So, in the diorama you had to show a scene about Easter, either it's resurrection of Jesus Christ, rabbits, or Easter Eggs. My class choose the theme "Resurrection of Jesus Christ". Then, I ask my teacher if it's okay to make a diorama out of cake (since I bought a cake mix and hadn't use it and I just wanted to make something different). And she agreed! The idea was to carve a cave with an Angel sitting on it and Mary Magdalene with the other Mary kneeling in front of the cave out of cake. It turn out pretty good :D Thanks a lot to the team (Lady Carlen, Jane Michelle and Maria) and my friend Christie Nadya :*

I baked the cake at home one day before the celebration and decorated it together at school. It was so much fun than decorating alone :P


Baking at my mini kitchen :P
This is how it looked after decorated! I piped "Selamat Paskah"(Happy Easter in Indonesia) in the cake mat. I didn't upload it because I STILL forgot how to rotate a picture and STILL haven't find out how.


The close-up look. It looked a bit weird but I love it <3
I'm going to write the second part soon! That's all for now. Bye-bye thanks for stopping by :P

RAINBOW CAKE!

I know I said "...so I'll just have to go slow and write type them one by one.." But I changed my mine. I'm too lazy to recollect my previous photos. And I think I'm just going to go trough to what-i-really-want-to-post and do it right know! 

Have you heard about rainbow cake? Of course!  

I always browse the internet to find a rainbow cake recipe, but usually, I end up with colored white cake mix cake, instead a do-it-yourself-from-scratch recipe. One day, a  friend (big thanks to her!)gave me a white cake recipe (from scratch!) that taste slightly vanilla and really white (SO! I can divide  the batter and color them rainbowly :P). It took so many egg whites though.. 

IF you're wondering "Why rainbow cake?" it's simply because of my obsession with RAINBOWS! Rainbow is just so beautiful ;;) It made me want to eat them. I've always been so curious how does a rainbow taste like? Does it taste like m&m's? Gummy bears? Fruits? I STILL don't know YET. Even though this cake only give me a vanilla taste, it satisfy me a bit. It's like eating a rainbow in a plate (I DID NOT eat directly with my face on the plate, I spooned it!). 

I made rainbow jello too, but you know, it's from a box not a do-it-yourself-from-scratch which I didn't really enjoy making. But it still taste great, once again, it's like eating a rainbow! :)
 
 I've made the rainbow cake several times. Here they are!

White from the outside but RAINBOWY inside








My very first rainbow cake. It looks horrifying..

Kit-Kat and M&M's cake, it's a chocolate cake but it's still colorful right? ;;)




Ice Cream House

FINALLY!  My school tests are done (there's still some try outs and tests though) but I'm pretty free for now. YAY! I have so many to post in my blog, but since in my last post, I said that I will write about Ice Cream House in my next post (which means this one), so I'll just have to go slow and write type them one by one. 

What's an Ice Cream House? It is an vintage cafe located near Bandung (I guess?.. I don't really know). I offers ice cream, bitterballens, coffees, teas, and other treats for tea time :D I enjoy both the atmosphere and the food I ate there. 

And what I really really like about this cafe is the ICE CREAM! (no wonder it's called Ice Cream House! :P)              
I SCREAM FOR ICE CREAM!! They are home-made, and have odd but good flavors that other stores didn't have!
e.g. : Frambozen (pink banana syrup, my mom's childhood favorite), Tutti Frutti, Durian, and.. and.. I can't remember... It has been a long time you know. Sorry :P

Wow it turns out that I took a picture of it's menu! See! It has unusual flavor which I love <3

Somebody had told me how to rotate but I forgot how. I guess you'll just have to turn you head right! :D
This is what I ate that day ~ 

Bitter Ballen

Vanilla Ice Cream

Krokettjes Hollaindaise 

Cappuccino Ice Cream (my sister's)

I.. forgot. This is my fourth scoop :D

Dad's Coffee

Uuh.. The shop keeper?

Tutti Frutti Ice Cream (my cousin's) and a pict of me in front of the store :D

A Door Bell! How cute. I wish I had one in my home.



The scenery's great too! The have flower garden in front with a sign saying "please don't pick up the flowers". I saw it just right before I picked them up (Thank God).
