【French "mooncake" adapted from foreign countries to China】

Overview

This French-style mooncake is actually a French filling cake. It is estimated that this small layer cake is similar to the traditional Chinese mooncake, so it is named this French cheese-filled mooncake. The addition of cranberries in the filling is a finishing touch. The combination of cranberries and cheese is really surprisingly harmonious, making the whole cake not feel thick at all, but bringing a little freshness. As a cheese lover, I love it very much. We can also call it the French Cranberry Cheese Sandwich Cake, so that it is not limited to being a mooncake of a specific period, but a small pastry that everyone will always want to make. I recommend that cheese lovers give it a try. You will not be disappointed~~
