A spot of baking

It has been many years since we last did a batch of kuih bangkit. As a direct result of this, we ( mother and self ) could not remember the exact consistency of the dough. We ended up with a rather dry ( hard to knead) dough. The weight of which could well bean a human being should you choose to hurl it across the room at a certain someone you hate. ( Just a thought!) I've uploaded some pictures taken at the begining of the venture. Mid way through the hands got sticky with dough and my arms starting aching that I decided to leave the pictures out completely and concentrate on kneading instead. Tip to those folks out there, too dry a dough results in a rusk-like end-product. Most disappointing. Tomorrow's exciting venture is "Red Velvet" cupcakes/ cakes. Wish us both luck.
