Today, char and I baked brownie(s).
And...... I've learned that:
- Brownies ARE very, very, very sinful. Brownies = Sugar (lots and lots) + chocolate + butter + flour. Uck. I feel sick.
- 250g is not = to 250ml.
- Baking is an expensive hobby.
- Trust your nose. When you smell a chao-dar smell, something IS burning.
- It doesn't pay to follow the guidelines strictly. Sometimes.
- If the baking gene is missing in your DNA, just eat the brownie batter. It is very yummy.
- Things are often not as bad as they appear to be. When we were faced with a chao-dar brownie, we thought that's it. But lo and behold, when we cut the brownie, we realised the inside was really quite okay! Very brownie-like, albeit dry with a chao-dar smell. Accolades received range from "It's actually quite nice!" to "Okay lah, mai hiam buay pai".
Our burnt brownie that was okay on the inside
