Danish Butter Cookies from Anncoo

Because CNY is coming like bout 1week plus, is time to bake some CNY cookies.. This year would be different becoz me... is going to bake cookies... Becoz i got the new oven already ma, so do everything baking also easier lot jo... I get the recipe from here 

The recipe say using Lurpak Brand, eventually i feel like want to buy Buttercup brand (although is cheaper but the quality is very nice). I don't know if you realize that, previous of all the baking cookies and cakes i am using Buttercup brand except when i baked Mrs. Ng SK Vanilla Butter Cake which use SCS Butter and also the Moist Banana Cake using SCS salted Butter too. So i think different recipe requires different Butter type to suit the outcome taste.

Ingredients :
1 egg 60gm (I use Large Egg)
200gm Soft Butter - Lurpak Butter Brand (So i follow Lurpak Brand, because tesco only available those in spreadable packaging, so i buy this)
320gm Plain Flour
130gm Icing Sugar
2tbsp Vanilla Extract



When i was bout starting to pipe those batter out, halfway when doing it you can feel the oil is like coming out from the piping bag.... And the more you do, the more the oil butter seems like squeezing out. I'm not sure whether is it i use the spreadable type one so thats why like this?

Picture Courtesy from Google


So here is my mixing bowl, i not even dare to fridge it a while because worry that the batter might more stiff and hard to pipe it out (although the recipe did not call to fridge for a while). But when i fridge it and take out to pipe again it become more worsen. More stiffer... ohh damm it... i shouldn't so pannai put in the fridge at first place.. Is not suitable if you want to pipe it out.


I pipe those Butter Cookies into this design because i don't have the tip that Anncoo using..



Bake for like 9mins or golden brown..


There it goes...


My verdict :
Buttery taste and fragrance.. Good Cookies for CNY..

Hello Bloggers, How is your New Year Day so far.. ?

Omg for the first time i try baking the Pineapple Rolls, and surprisingly the outcome is very good! My family everyone is praising this pineapple roll is damm good...although the outcome is not that-so-pretty, but the taste is there....

Specially thanks to Nasi Lemak Lover for this wonderful recipe. You can get it from here.

Condensed milk (susu manis pekat) 100g -I use F&N Sweetened Creamer(Krimer Pekat Manis)
Butter 375g
All purpose flour 570g
Egg yolks 2

Egg yolk for egg glaze -2

1. Cream butter and condensed milk till light.
2. Add in egg yolk one at a time, and beat until fluffy.
3. Mix in flour, mix till become a firm and non-stick dough.
4. Put mixture into a Nastar mould and press out into strips about 5-6cm long.
5. Place pineapple jam filling on the edge of a strip and make a small elongated roll.
6. Cut off excess dough, brush with egg glaze.
7. Bake in preheated oven at 180c for 13-15mins or till golden brown.
8. Cool on wire racks before storing.

 Here's the mould... Just need to keep on pressing and pressing out the dough...in Nastar mould...


 There it goes the 1st tray successfully completed! Yay or Nay...?


 I bake it till the top starts to brown then only take it out, about 20mins..... with 170c.
