Red alert!

Akhirnya....

Sebelum ni pernah cuba sekali pakai resipi McCormick. Tapi entah kenapa, jadinya keras sikit. Tak tau la salah resipi ke atau salah diri sendiri. Kalau dah tak kena, ke longkang lah jawabnya.

Lepas tu rasa malas nak cuba lagi. Time tu tengah gigih berdiet la kononnya. Tapi diet pun boleh join sama dengan red velvet cake McCormick masuk longkang. Hot hot chicken shit saje, sebulan pun tak tahan. Semua gara-gara chocolate bottom banana square. Once you open the Pandora box... very hard I tell you. Punah diet lepas tu!

Hari tu Sally pulak gatal gi upload gambar red velvet cake dia buat di Facebook. Amboi amboi amboi, sejak buat Unit Trust ni, rajin sungguh dia masuk dapur. Tergoda mak tau!

Kali ni aku cuba pakai resipi dari Bisous A Toi. Sumber resipi untuk chocolate bottom banana square jugak. Marveles, kompem jadik kalau pakai resipi dari sini! Takyah susah-susah cari resipi tempat lain. Gambar pun cantik belaka, memang rambang mata wa cakap lu!
