Ube Cheese Pandesal

I'm finally back to Baking!

It's definitely been a while.

If I could, I would bake everyday, in a heartbeat!

It's just really been hard to find time with my boys and so many things to do.

But, anyways...

You guys probably heard the news. 

The virus and all of that.. 

So we have been just home and not going to do any travel plans, I don't know until when.

So, with that I decided to stay away from the social media and I will look at the news 

when I'm ready for more information.

I figured baking is the best therapy I needed.

Baking makes me feel relax. 

:)

Pandesal has such a special place in my heart.

It bring so much memories just the fresh baked smell of it.

Seeing the new trend of flavor with Ube and cheese inside I can't help but wonder if I can make it.

Too bad I didn't get to try this in the Philippines when I was there for vacation.

Oh well..

Anyways, this was the same as making the regular Pandesal just with few additional stuff.

Let me know what you guys think!
