Today's bakes - Lemon Cream Cheesecakes, Oatmeal Biscuits

I woke up this morning planning to bake something... something that's been tempting me the past few days. HK did it. Peony did it. And I had everything in the fridge with no excuse not to do it. Lemon and cream cheese - two of my favourite ingredients. Yum, yum, smelling it now from the kitchen. Freshly-baked Lemon Cream Cheese Cake. Mine turned out really ugly as I don't have jumbo muffin tray and my cupcake liners are jumbo so I just put them on normal tray and they expanded and went kind of flat. Haha. But I'm sure the taste is yummers. Going to take them to friend's place for tea.

Verdict - Super yummy! Would add more lemon juice next time and lessen sugar. :P

I also made these before the cheese cakes. The cornflake cookies that littlecornerofmine made, but since I didn't have any cornflakes, I used oats.

The first few trays I made them plain and after princess had a try, she asked what was in it and suddenly I thought, hey why not add some raisins and almonds that I had in the fridge so the last tray contained these two extra ingredients.

lilltots - You will love this. It's so simple and easy to make. Try it this weekend. It's delicious. Just link to peony or hk's blog. Peony did half recipe so that is great for small families but it's so yummy you should actually do the full recipe. Hehe.

Peony - Ai, where got hardworking. I bo pian for the parties. Yesterday's ones were leisure baking. But cos I was so tempted by the two and actually wasn't rushed for time so enjoyed making them. :P

beachlover - Yes, do try, but it isn't my recipe. I got it from HK.
