Moon cakes

Sweet thin dough filled with traditional lotus paste, it is time that you make these delicious Chinese goodies at home.

Making traditional Chinese baked mooncakes can be overwhelming but you can do it with this recipe and straightforward steps. I use lotus seed paste, sweet red bean paste, and meat floss for the filling. Accompanied by step-by-step photos and a video so you can make this successfully at home too.

Snow skin mooncakes use a cooked glutinous rice flour crust, resulting in a very soft mochi-like texture. With the right ingredients and tools (see notes for more details), mooncakes are actually really easy to make and don't require any baking, although the cakes need several hours to chill in the refrigerator before serving.

Just in time here is an easy Chinese moon cake recipe for you to share with your family and friends during this year's mid autumn moon festival which takes place on the 15th day of the of the 8th lunar moon. Chinese moon cakes distinctively shaped round with symbols on the crown are a staple in Chinese and Asian cultures and are celebrated during the fall and New Year.

When I first saw this recipe at Zoe's blog, I thought it's really interesting as it differs from the usual mooncakes which use lotus paste as fillings and I bookmarked it right away! :) When I saw it at Karen's blog few days ago, I was even more determined to try it out! This baked custard mooncakes are really popular in Hong Kong and are selling like hot cakes! Thanks to Master Chef Ye ( 葉潤發師傅) who is the creator of this delectable pastry mooncake. He was inspired by the Fried Custard Bun…
