Easy Peasy Messy Bun

It has been a while, isn’t it? I hope you all have not forgotten me. Just in case you are wondering, I had been busy. Taking care of baby around the clock is by no mean feat. They simply won’t allow you to do anything other than watching, playing with and feeding them! Good news being, she is almost 2 years old, my ‘easier’ life shouldn’t be too far away (or so I hope).



Anyway, this messy bun that is so popular recently in Taiwan it kind of got my attention. It is selling at $5 for 2 at local bakery in Singapore. Kind of expensive, I thought. But, I really don’t have time to make the dough, so maybe, just maybe, I can make do with the easy version - simply use ready made puff pastry and drizzle with generous portion of chocolate.



What can I say?

Well, kids love it, I love it, it doesn’t take up much of my time. So overall, I am happy with it! I hope you will try it too!
