Bean paste and egg yolk mooncakes

Overview

I am very happy that Meitian gave me an opportunity to make mooncakes by myself! Put whatever fillings you like, and you can also give the mooncakes you made to your relatives and friends to share the joy of Mid-Autumn Festival with everyone! It feels really good! Although it may seem difficult at the beginning, practice makes perfect and you will get better at it if you do it a few times. Don’t be afraid of making mistakes and be brave enough to learn. I believe you can also make delicious mooncakes!
