Hi
Are you using the creaming method or the mixed all ingredients method because you used melted butter?

Hi...

I want to make the pandan muffins but i don't have pandan leaves, is it possible just to use pandan paste?
Thanx.

Hi anonymous,

Pandan paste will do equally good.

Hi Anonymous,

Add in 1 tsp first and if you find that that the colour is not strong enough, add in some green colouring.

Hi Aunty Yochana...

I happen to chance upon your blog late last year.. and have being a big fan since then... so far, i have tried your awfully chocolate cake... I have received super raving feedback everytime I attempt any of your cakes.

Thanks so much for sharing.. this is one of the most frequent site for me lately..

I am currently trying your pandan muffin.. how many muffins will the above recipe yield?

Hi Aunty Yochana,

Two questions: One, will frozen pandan leaves work just as well?
and Two, how much milk do I need to blend them with?
Thank you so much!

Can I ask why we just fold the dry ingredient into the wet one and not stir it up? why the mixture has to be lumpy?
