Resep Eggtart aka Pie Susu

Belakangan lebih sering bikin - bikin kue ketimbang menjahit. Kepuasan tersendiri sih kalo hasilnya bisa nyenengin anak. My son is my best supporter kalo masalah baking. Sebagian besar hasilnya dia yg habisin. Meski beberapa percobaan belom bisa seenak yg sudah komersial tapi tetap edible, selalu ada pasukan kecil yg habisin.

Postingan kali ini ada resep eggtart atau sering juga disebut pie susu. Resepnya nemu dari facebook berupa video, jadi sudah saya catet bahannya (tanpa modifikasi) dan share disini. Too bad saya ga ambil gambar proses pembuatannya step by step. Bakal diupdate deh kalo ada bikin lagi.


Bahan kulit eggtart :
140gr butter
1 kuning telur
70gr gula bubuk
200gr tepung terigu

Bahan custard :
140gr gula
300ml air
4 butir telur
80ml susu kental manis (carnation)

Cara :
Aduk semua bahan kulit sampai tercampur rata dan diamkan di kulkas selama 20 menit.
Rebus air dan gula, tidak perlu diaduk.
Diamkan air gula hingga dingin. Sementara itu, cetak adonan kulit.
Panaskan oven ke suhu 200`
Setelah air gula dingin, masukkan susu dan telur, kocok lepas hingga tercampur dengan baik.
Saring dan tuang ke adonan kulit.
Panggang selama 15-20menit

Kalo menurut saya, kulit eggtart bisa saja memakai resep butter cookie favorit. Saya sendiri suka pakai resep kulit nastar mertua. Saya juga menambahkan sedikit essense vanilla ke custardnya utk menyamarkan bau amis telur.
Selamat mencoba!

Polkadot Drawstring Pouches

One post per year is very not productive at all. Lol.. Fortunately, the writing part is the one that is not productive.

For the sewing part, I made some dresses for Zo. Simple one that she can wear almost everyday. Some tutu skirts for adult (they had been using it for prewedding photoshoot, yeay!). Some other garment alterations. And the most recent one is drawstring pouhes.

A friend of my sister sent me fat quaters. She told me to turn those pretty fabrics to drawstring pouches. Well, I am not quite free, so I made them a little bit by a little bit. And this is my halfway done project.

Coming Back!!

It has been a year since my last post. Wheew.. How time flies..
I am a superbusy Mom right now, with two little rascals, yes, TWO, and all the motherhood things.
I'm about introducing a new member of family, a little girl named Zoey Queen. :)

I did not sew many things lately, some baby blankets, a thing ot two for Big Z and Lil' Z.
Some pics will sum everything up, I guess.
Well, I'm glad to be back again. :)

Tiny dress for my Lil Z

Cute pants for Big Z. Love the fabric.
