Mr & Mrs Ngoo.: My 7th anniversary present back to liam =3

Cracked my brain of wat to do for dar for anniversary..since nothings beats by d.i.y stuff..so my craving of baking comes again..fei n sin must be screaming in their hearts. not again!!! haaaa...

Owe fei a big favor..she helped me take pic, air the gingerbread man, transfer them out of oven la...bla bla bla..so sweeet. sweet kiss for u fei.

Below are a series of photos showing my tedious process of baking gingerbread man for my dar dar..since he had a touching gift for me. i shall do something to 'touch' him also..

i already pre warn him i b bringing frens back to him by his cambodia buddy who came spore for holiday. =D

i bake from 9pm to 3am...grrr..due to miscalculation regardless of my strict following of recipe. =(

beating the egg.

Staring hard at the recipe so i won't miss adding impt ingredients.

Measuring flour..i finali can afford a measuring cup!! last time ins ch times so broke can oni agar agar when i bake stuff for dar...

Adding in flour baking powder...fei commented look like adding poison.

i so ke lian..thirsty no hands can oni bend down to drink my yakult. =x

wrapping the dough in plastic wrap n dunk it into the fridge to harden. it takes one hr. some unforseen situation crop up. after one hr, my dough is still soft n wet so i tot let it b in fridge another hr..in de end i wasted 2 hr for ntg. cuz i can actuali just add flour to harden it instead of letting it harden in fridge. =((

THe mould is amazing.. cute shape of gingerbread man is out =3

1st batch..look so thick n yummy!!! not bad hor.

2nd batch...ahaha..the mini gingerbread man so OFF lor!

Airing the cookie before putting into the container..cute hor..hee.

We use the biscuits white choco sauce to paint the mouth..but as the cookie is too hot, it melts my white choco n the mouth become diluted looking..n sorta foaming at the mouth. so ke lian!!

We take the chance when the cookie is hot as it's still soft, we quickly plant the belly button on it(MnMs)..but some of it cracks n melts on our finger cuz the cookie too hot!! Fei took this opportunity to eat some melted n UNMELTED MnMs. *irritated. dar u will realise nearer to the end some gingerbread man belly button are all brown choco bits cuz fei finished the MnMs. =.=

last batch..i make sure it's very baked so it will be hard and more difficult to break. abit black..n chao dar.

Cool and ready to be packed.

Unfortunately Some gingerbread man were harmed in the process...so....

k la actuali it's my container ain't that big thus we have to disqualify the not so healthy looking gingerbread man.

All packed/squeezed and ready to go/fly to cambodia~~

This is what dar do when he receive the gift..he lay out all the gingerbread man. so embarrassing la. some of them already distorted le. sad sia. liam called it the 23 army of gingerbread man.
