Snowskin mooncake

Snowskin mooncake

Overview

As the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, I also made a snow-skin mooncake at home. Snow-skin mooncakes have become more and more popular in recent years. They come in many flavors and do not require baking like traditional mooncakes. The ingredients for this snow-skin mooncake are very simple to make and are relatively easy to buy. Making them yourself is economical, affordable, and healthy.
