Introducing: Oreo Pudeo

It's been a very long time since we came up with a new one to bring up to the AFookies family. Plus, it has been about 2 years since we first started AFookies. Aaaahhh those days *reminisce* ....

And in that 2 years, we have only made four cookies to be added to the AFookies lists. Can you imagine that? Only 4 cookies in 730 days? You guys must be thinking that we've been sitting around doing nothing all along. No! It's because we take it seriously. Introducing a new menu IS rocket science to us. We would allocate about 4 months for us to actually do our homework (research), testing, retrieving comments or opinions, re-testing until we think that we have found the perfect recipe for the particular cookie. It has been a tough journey for us to find the right ingredients, amount and everything else for this one. Introducing, Oreo Pudeo!

Catchy name huh? We tried to come up with something different earlier but after discussing for a period of time, we're agreed to use this name instead, sounds more...mouth-watering hehe. Now let's talk about the ingredients. We're going to tell you guys our secret ingredients, yup, very unusual indeed.

Firstly, 37% of the cookies are made up of oreo, despite of the name, duhh. Delicious, chocolatey melt-in-your-mouth kind of oreo. Next, we added a special ingredient called, 'cookies and cream' which brings out the sweet oreo taste more than you can ever imagine. Because of the 'cream' in it, you'll  notice a slight creamy, buttery taste. If you don't, then your taste buds are just...wrong. The last part, we added something that allows the cookies to actually melt in your mouth. Something very subtle, and inevitable. You'll get the idea! That's as far as we can guys!

We have more photos to share with!

 Who ate that one!?

 Here's something different, if you notice, all of our cookies, they have this air-spaced kind of texture, just like Famous Amos (our rival ), that makes the cookies taste superb! There's a secret to this, really.

Don't worry, we are still matching our prices with the other competitors. As hard as it is, to make these, they're still cheap and affordable, all for you guys! The prices for Oreo Pudeo is the same as White Chocolate Chunk's, that is;

100 grams - RM 8.00

250 grams - RM17.00

1400 grams - RM 85.00

That's all from us this time guys! We are opening our doors to Oreo Pudeo now! Happy ordering! ;)

How To Adjust Your Oven's Temperature

The oven's temperature plays a big role in determining your baking results. You would either get your cookies crispy, crunchy or chunky, based on the temperature used. Not many people know about this since they thought that ingredients are the bulging factors for that perfect cookie!

Each point of temperature used produce different results. Two main things that you've got to remember,

1) The lower the temperature, the slower your cookies will get cooked, the crispier/crunchier they will be.
2) The higher the temperature, the faster your cookies will get cooked, the chunkier they will be.

It would be your choice on how you want them to be. Some people would prefer the crispier versions, and some, vice versa. If you ask us, it depends on our customers since we take special requests!

We're not saying that you should go as lowest as you can, or as high as you can to get your preferred results, instead, you should try and experiment with different temperatures for each batch of cookies you bake. There is always a perfect temperature point for each recipe that you use. Our best advice? Experiment!

Also, every oven is designed differently but they have this same function where you can set your thermal fan to focus at the middle part of the oven, lower, or upper. It is always a good thing to focus it at the middle since heat will be transferred evenly throughout the middle part. So where do you from here? Place your trays of cookie dough at the middle so that they will be cooked evenly. Always check and shift your trays as well.

That's all folks! :P
