Have you tried it before?<br /><br />Noura ya noura, shaklik m3adala kteer. Baking a pound cake and making ma3mool? habibti this is way beyond my skill and my isti3dad at the moment lol. But I like anything with whole fruit in it. Maybe I can buy an already made pound cake and try this. Do you think it'll taste as good? <br /><br />Oh and I totally know what you mean about trying things out on your own sucessfully and having it flop when you actually need to present it. I swear I used to make the best pineapple chicken. When I tried it at the last gathering it just wasn't right.<br /><br />7aki, thanks soooooooooo much your recipe sounds much tastier. It sounds much tastier than the one I was going to use that I found online. I think I'll use this for sure. Ok question, do you think I could successfuly incorporate some nuts in this one? like toasted pecans or almonds?asoomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12570940229805213756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3744251946193970464.post-14474866179996049372009-05-22T09:01:30.691-05:002009-05-22T09:01:30.691-05:00Baked Brie is sooooooooooooooooooo easy Asoom.
- ...Baked Brie is sooooooooooooooooooo easy Asoom.<br /><br />- Buy some puff pastry<br />- cut brie in half to make it like a sandwich<br />- get raspberry jam<br />- put butter on pastry<br />- put half brie on top<br />- top with jam( put lots)<br />- out other half on top<br />- top with jam<br />- close puff pastry like a little parcel ( tuck corners together)<br />- put some butter on top and bake for about 25 minutes or until pastry is nice and golden brown (package always has instructions )<br /><br />Serve with crackers or apple slices.<br /><br />This takes like 10 minutes to prepare sooo easy and yummy.7aki Fadihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08096915889748007071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3744251946193970464.post-29134003378702491142009-05-22T08:06:57.481-05:002009-05-22T08:06:57.481-05:00a funny story..I invited once a group of friends a...a funny story..I invited once a group of friends and I wanted to impress them by making ma3mool !! I spent hours on the phone with mom to get it right. I spent the whole day mixing and measuring and bought wooden shaped molds especially for the recipe....Once I put them in the oven , they melted completely and I ended up with a pan of ma3mool cake !!! <br />And the cake I mentioned in my previous comment, I have probably made it a hundred times, yet when I had company, it didn't work loolAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3744251946193970464.post-71402527437276716672009-05-22T07:59:56.760-05:002009-05-22T07:59:56.760-05:00@ Mr mab3oos, you are not bad at all, next time a...@ Mr mab3oos, you are not bad at all, next time am short on ideas I guess I will ask you :)<br /><br />I was about to suggest something more practical and not as fancy like baked chicken and middle eastern side dishes..something tested because no room for failure!!<br /><br />Baked brie is a nice choice but again if you haven't worked with Pasty puff before don't test it today.<br />I made a pound cake the other day and it totally flopped so I cut it up into cubes..put some in medium size bowls, top with vanilla pudding, sliced bananas, and repeat the same one more time. Put in the fridge and when ready to serve top with whip cream and strawberries. You can buy a frozen container of strawberries and thaw, it was perfect for this recipe because it already had some juice.<br />sa7tein with whatever you decide :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3744251946193970464.post-67765445917352169392009-05-22T01:17:44.707-05:002009-05-22T01:17:44.707-05:00i said light version!!
