The Baking Madness Begins..

It's the time of the year again where the baking madness begins... As I've mentioned in my post 2 days ago, baking cookies has become my permanent project every Chinese New Year (CNY).

Today, I kicked start my CNY cookie baking marathon with a batch of Walnut Chocolate Chip Cookies. Unlike Pineapple Tarts and Peanut Cookies, Chocolate Chip Cookies are not synonymous with CNY. I bake them because they are my favourite. They are delicious and their flavour takes me right back to my childhood.
