Egg yolk cake

Overview

Egg yolk shortbread is based on the Chinese tea peach cake, with boiled egg yolk added. It is a bit like the recipe of margarita, but not exactly the same, because the margarita recipe contains more starch. After adding egg yolk to this snack, it is more nutritious and tastes particularly good.
