Lotus Seed Paste

Overview

The lotus paste I made last night is crispy~

Add powdered sugar to softened butter.
Mix well.
Pour in high-gluten flour.
Rub the butter and flour together with your hands.
Add egg mixture.
Knead into dough.
Divide the dough into three parts and roll one part into a long strip.
Use a rolling pin to roll out the long strip and pipe a long strip of lotus paste filling.
Wrap the lotus paste filling with dough sheets and gently knead it into a round bar.
I also made bean paste flavored strips.
Brush the surface of the long strips with egg wash and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Cut into equal length pieces with a knife.
Arrange on baking sheet.
Preheat the oven to 180℃ for about 25 minutes (temperature and time are for reference only)
You can change the fillings to different flavors.
Very crispy.
