My new oven

My new Faber 40L oven

Hubby said I was too agree and guess what, he is right! My oven is too big and has taken a huge space on my limited space table top, leaving no more space for other pots.

I still could not get use to my new oven. Our first baking project was the Mickey Mouse Butter Cookies. Although  they are a little bit dark, they still turns out very nice and extremely tasty!

On the second day, I did some cupcakes using a butter cake recipe. Some big mistakes:

1. placing my tray at the bottom rack. Since they were placed too near to the heating rod, bottom part of my cupcakes got burn!

2. I could not estimate the heat and time for baking cupcakes. I preheat my oven for 15mins at 180C degree. I think my oven was too hot.

3. The mixture was not beaten long enough.*sigh…boys crying so I got to feed them*. The texture of my cupcakes are too coarse.

4. I think the mixture collapsed. It was left too long since I had to feed another boy. The cakes were very dry. The cupcakes taste more like cookies instead of cake!
