Pumpkin and sesame balls

Pumpkin and sesame balls

Overview

I remember that a pastry shop near my work a few years ago sold a kind of pumpkin sesame balls. The sesame seeds and shells on the outside were fragrant and crunchy, and the pumpkin glutinous rice inside was QQ-like and glutinous. When you bite into it, it is so elastic that you will want to eat two more after eating one. I often buy a bag and secretly put it in my mouth when no one is paying attention outside the office, chewing it slowly and savoring the sweet taste. However, that store didn't open for a long time. It disappeared within less than a year. It really made me think about it and was greedy for a long time. Later, I tried to do it myself. In fact, it was very simple.
