Red bean cake

Overview

It was the first time I made red bean cakes and I had no experience. I rolled the pastry too thin and it didn’t taste like layers of crispy cakes, only a mouthful of red bean fillings. Although the crust is thin and the filling is large, it tastes very good. I have to improve it next time and make the skin thicker.
