CP, a good friend of mine, is an excellent baker.
Recently, I approached her and asked if she would be interested in sharing some of her recipes with the visitors to Rasa Malaysia, and she responded excitedly.
I’ll be presenting four of her recipes for cakes, cookies, and other baked goods in the coming weeks.
The information presented here is valuable, and I hope you will find it helpful.

Whenever my mother would buy these small cakes from the market, I would eat them for breakfast, tea, dinner, or whenever I was hungry as a kid.
