【Purple Sweet Potato Snowskin Mooncake】---Zero-failure mooncake
Overview
During the Mid-Autumn Festival this year, I made Cantonese-style mooncakes four times, and there were about a hundred of them. Although I made so many, there were not many left at home. So later I made some ice-skin ones, filled with my favorite purple sweet potato filling and lotus paste filling. Snowskin mooncakes are not only easy to make, but also have less oil and sugar, so it doesn’t matter if you eat a few more. There are different ways to make snowskin mooncakes. You can fry the flour first and then knead it into a ball. You can also mix various raw flours first and steam them before making them. Compared with the two flavors, I prefer steaming the flour before making them.

Ingredients
Steps
-
Mix milk, powdered sugar, and salad oil and stir evenly.
-
Add various powders mixed evenly.
-
Stir into a lump-free paste.
-
Add a drop of edible purple coloring, mix well and let it sit for half an hour. (This step can be omitted, that is, white snowskin mooncakes.
-
Steam over high heat for about 15 minutes until cooked.
-
Stir vigorously with chopsticks while it's hot until smooth, then wait until it cools down to make snow-skin mooncakes.
-
I used a 50g mooncake mold for this, and the skin-to-filling ratio was 2:3. Divide the ice skin into 20g pieces and roll them into rounds, and divide the purple potato filling into 30g pieces and roll them into rounds.
-
Take a piece of ice crust and flatten it, wrap it with purple sweet potato filling, and slowly push the crust up to wrap the filling.
-
After closing, make a round shape.
-
Pour into the cake flour and roll it around, then pat off the excess flour and leave a thin layer.
-
Also put some cooked flour into the mooncake mold, cover it with the palm of your hand and shake it so that the mold is evenly coated with a thin layer of powder, and then add the mooncake embryo.
-
Press out the mooncakes.
-
Put the prepared mooncakes into a container and refrigerate overnight before eating.
