Double Happiness Salt and Pepper Cake

Double Happiness Salt and Pepper Cake

Overview

Chatting with my son during dinner, he said: In the evening, my classmates made an appointment to go to karaoke, and I said, "Then you can go and be happy too," he said firmly, "I won't go," I asked, "Why?" He answered me: The karaoke private room is very closed, and they smoke and drink inside. I have rhinitis, and besides, I don’t know how to smoke or drink. I would look too out of place if I squatted with a bottle of Coke, right? I said okay! As you wish. Three hours later, my son said again, "I want to go now. Come on, it's already 11 o'clock. Why are you going to go when it's over?" He said, "I'm going to go when it's almost over. Let's see if any of them are drunk so we can send them home!" I covered my mouth and looked confused... The topic quickly returned to this salt and pepper chive puff pastry! In fact, I have made this very delicious thing many times. The crispy outer skin and salty flavor are indescribable. Every time I finish making it, my family almost kills it before letting it cool quickly. After finishing this time, I especially recommend it to my friends to try when they have time. I think this Chinese snack is a good choice for eating by yourself or as a gift during the Spring Festival.
