The best [egg yolk cake]

Overview

Follow the WeChat public account [Xingxing Private Kitchen]! There will be more detailed pictures to help you make this dish better! I remember buying it from a cake shop by chance before. The cute and golden appearance is wrapped with rich fillings. After one bite, I couldn't stop. It's salty yet sweet, and sweet yet fragrant. I fell in love with it right away. It's not as sweet as Western pastries, nor as dry as traditional Chinese pastries. It's just the perfect blend of flavors. Try it if you don't believe it. Regarding lard, I know there are many people like me who are repulsed by it at first glance. If you think about it carefully, is it healthier to cook it yourself? Buttered pork is all zoo oil, and we should only eat it in moderation. If you are still repelled, just replace the pork with the same amount of butter. If not, use the same amount of vegetable oil, but the taste may be worse.
