Oreo Truffle
Assalamualaikum!
Few days back I saw an awesome video on how to make an oreo truffle. Well, it looks easy in the video and so I give it a try. Mine doesn't look as good as in the video though. Hihi.
Ok this is how my oreo truffle looks like.
Hey, ignore the weird shape okay.
There were few mistakes I made in making this oreo truffle. I'll tell them later.
Ok, let's start cookin' :P
First the ingredient. Very simple.
1. Oreo biscuits (depends on own favourite taste but double stuff oreo is preferable as it has more cream)
2. Cream cheese
3. Cooking chocolate
Ok that's all! :)
First step is to blend the double stuff oreo using a food processor.
My first mistake here is that I don't have a proper food processor. I just use my mother's cooking blender. This doesn't blend the cookies well as it need to be. It's quite troublesome but I had to break the unbroken pieces down using my hand.
Well don't worry, having a good food processor will do. After making sure all the oreo biscuits has now broken down into powder, add in the cream cheese. Amount? Emm as you like. For me, I put half of the cream cheese from the above picture with 3 rolls of double stuff oreo.

Then I mix it well using my hand.
It will then look like this..
Ok next step is to shape it into a ball shape. Arrange in a baking container.
Ok now it's time to melt the cooking chocolate. You can use either white or dark chocolate.
Ok my second mistake here is I just straight away melt the cooking chocolate. I didn't add in some butter. So the melted cooking chocolate is a bit thick, and too sweet hihi.
Next, wrapped the ball-shaped oreo with the melted cooking chocolate.
Then arrange it back on the baking container.
You can choose either to wrap it properly or just partially as the picture above.
Then put it in the fridge for about 30 to 60 minutes.
Oreo truffles is ready!
For the topping of each truffles, you can use your own creativity ;P
This is the first batch. I made the second batch today. This time using a dark cooking chocolate added with some butter. And yeah it tastes better.
Well that's all.
Happy trying!

Tips of Being Awesome #3
Assalamualaikum!
Ok here's the next tips.
Tips of Being Awesome #3: Control our focus
We tend to get easily distracted with something that we think is important but is not. Take a moment and recall back, in a day what is the thing that occupy our mind the most. Is it really important? It's an individual decision.
Here let's talk as a Muslim. As a Muslim, our priority is only one. Allah. His blessings, His forgiveness, His love. These are the most important thing in a Muslim's life. We know that this world is just a station before we reach our final destination, and for us to arrive at our final destination successfully, we need Allah's forgiveness, blessings and love. Yeah we do.
Unfortunately, the mind does not revolve around this matter frequent enough. If we like a guy or a girl, we tend to think about them almost every minute. What is he doing? Will I meet her today? Does he like me? What does she think of me? Or, if we are very obsessed with a movie or a game, we just could not stop thinking about it. Well, I think this is not awesome.
Let's control our focus and aim only for Allah.
Hey that does not mean we should not think of our family, career, work, future etc. We have to think about it but in a different way. Connect them all to Allah. Find a reason to gain Allah's blessings in all these aspects. Do the best in each one. Focus.
May Allah helps us to purify our mind.
Innsyaa Allah.

Tips of Being Awesome #2
Assalamualaikum!
Yes let's continue with the next tips of being awesome!
Tips of Being Awesome #2: Always be patient, keep your cool.
To be really patient is not easy, but never is impossible.
All we need is practice.
Whenever you feel really angry, just take a deep breath and let it go. Remind yourself of the rewards that you will earn by being patient, remind yourself that you are more than that, remind yourself that you are awesome.
The real patience is at the first moment of anger, not after we have exploded. Keep on practicing this habit until you feel perfectly calm at the first moment of anger.
We tend to be easily angry towards family members compared to the outsiders. It's very common.
The prophet said, "The best among you is the best to their family, and I am the best one to my family." [An authentic hadith reported by Imams At-Tirmithi, Ibn Hibban, and Ibn Majah]
We should start being patience with our family members first. When your mother nag, be patient. When your younger brother break your stuffs, be patient. When your sister finish up your favourite cookies, be patient.
It's not easy yes I know.
But practice make perfect, peeps!
Oh another thing is, by not scolding people we'll save up a lot of energy. And that energy can definitely be used for the solution of the problem that is causing our anger.
Let's practice this to be an awesome muslim!
May Allah ease, ameen.
