I'm back :D

Hello again!!! Guess what? I'm back! From where? Remember my last post, where I said I went to buy some brioche rolls? Well, I'm back! And sadly, we didn't buy brioche rolls...but what we DID buy is...Croissants!!!!!!!!! Yay! You know, last time I went to Hastings, I had a croissant fresh from a local bakery, and after that, i've been pretty obsessed with them...
I even tried looking the recipe up ;)
It sounds kinda weird to me, but if you want to try it, here's the link. The bit about the all-purpose flour is weird, so I'm thinking of using plain flour instead...it's pretty much the same! WARNING: I HAVEN'T TRIED IT YET!! When I do, i'll make sure to post some pictures of it. :)
Other things i've been into are: cookies, making icing, plain cake, and raspberry buns (otherwise known as rock cakes).
The recipe for the raspberry buns is one I learnt at school, so my recipe isn't on the internet... at some point, i'll try to post pictures of my rock cakes ;)
If you want to try them, here's the recipe:

ingredients:

200g self-raising flour
75g butter/block margarine
100g sugar
1 egg
3 tablespoon milk


method:
1. Pre-heat oven to gas 6 200 degrees.
2. Sieve flour ( and cocoa and baking powder/spice if used) into a large mixing bowl
3. Cut butter or marg. into small cubes. Rub into dry ingredients using your fingertips until no more chunky lumps of butter can be felt.
4. Add sugar (and any other additional ingredients: chocolate)
5. Break egg into a small bowl and beat lightly with a fork; add to mixture.
6. Add milk.
7. Stir to form a stiff dough, or use a hand mixture to mix until doungh becomes creamy-like.
8. Bake for 15-20 mins.
9. Enjoy, and don't tell this recipe to others :D
