Chestnut cake

Chestnut cake

Overview

The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and there are mooncakes everywhere at home. I looked through the refrigerator and found that there were still some uneaten chestnuts I bought a few days ago, and the new mooncake mold I bought online had arrived again. Then make some chestnut cake, it will still be very fragrant with some cream.
