dark chocolate yogurt cake and pandan yogurt muffins

so...
today's another baking frenzy day
cos yesterday i bought some pandan thing (i later realised it's not pandan extract) from the asian store
and you know me....i get excited very easily...

so i tried baking some pandan yogurt muffins
hmm......this time i put some oil on the paper cups so the muffin diddnt stick too much...which was good!
the texture still soft and moist inside....and a bit crispy outside...
this time i made sure i did not overbake them
they turned out quite alright
but not as fragrant as i thought they would be
i think cos the pandan thing i used not as strong as those pandan extract...it's more paste like than liquid like....so i guess next time i gotta put in more of that
this time the muffins look more naked than the previous vanilla muffins cos i diddnt put any toppings
wasn't too sure what to add that would go with pandan, but i think next time i'll try some almonds

also, i tried this other yougrt cake
the dark chocolate yogurt cake
this one was baked in a loaf pan
it was quite dense
and the chocolate flavour was quite dominant (i guess since it's called dark chocolate cake hehe)
since i cut down on the sugar
the cake tasted very chocolatey but not sweet
the cake also had a bit of concentrated coffee in it
it would have tasted better it it was eaten with ice cream or whipped cream
after that i added some icing sugar on the cake
hoho....looks so christmas-ey
the icing sugar forms a very nice contrast with the chocolate cake

guess i'm gonna be stuffed with lots of cake!
i've had cake the whole day lol!
i have a lot more practise to go!

now for non-baking stuff
went to collect my academic transcript today
well, i thought it would be a good idea to have a hard copy with me during the exchange
hmm....i've yet to email the accommodation offices of lincoln and guelph to inform them that my flight has changed
hmm...still gotta apply for the australian visa

should i get new specs
i really would like new ones
but the thought of the price...hai sian.....

i think tomorrow the flatmates are gonna go catch a movie
public enemy i think
hehe...look forward to that since johnny depp is in it =)

i think i'm quite kiasu
i don't have any classes now
but i went to the bookshop to get those books compiled by the lecturers
you know those type with readings and stuff assigned for the particular course
i think i wanna bring it along to canada
it would act as extra resource heh....

hmm....i think i'm gonna go get more muffins later muahahha!
