Embarrassing Dad and shortbread

Hello its Mia here this is my first blog so don't laugh! So this blog is all about me and my mum learning how to bake and today's bake was millionaire short breads it was the first thing we liked the idea of as we couldnt do the recipe we were thinking of as we didn't have the right ingrediants and it involved soaking the peaches for six hours so short bread it is.

We started baking quite late today as I had a sleepover last night and I went to have a nap also i was quite stressed as my dad had took me and my friend Romy out of dance early because my dance teacher was running over time it was really embarrassing! He goes to football on a Sunday and never misses it. A few days after Mum had Felix he still went.  We also had to nip out to get some extra ingredients.

I chose millionaire short bread because its my favourite kind of biscuit and it's a loveable thing that al my friends will enjoy. We started off by halving all of the ingrediants as it had 375 grams of butter which is like 2 blocks! The short bread went really well but when we were putting it in the tin it was too big so we had to convert it to a smaller one. As I write I am waiting for it to set in the fridge taste test coming up.
This is generally the mess I make

OK so I think the chocolate's a bit dark, but overall it's really yummy. Here's a picture of the cake and my Dad eating it...how embarrassing.

Taking it to school tomorrow. so I'll let you know how it goes! See ya xxx
