Chestnut Snowskin Mooncake

Chestnut Snowskin Mooncake

Overview

Another Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and snowskin mooncakes are a Mid-Autumn Festival food. Incoming from Hong Kong. In the 1980s, snowskin mooncakes were sold in markets in Hong Kong. As a Cantonese, I have long liked and fallen in love with eating snowskin mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival, so I started DIY snowskin mooncakes and made my own favorite fillings. Yesterday I made purple sweet potato snowskin mooncakes, and today I made chestnut snowskin mooncakes. PS: The main ingredient is skin and the auxiliary ingredient is filling. The ratio of mooncake skin to mooncake filling is 3:7. The following ingredients are the recipe for 20 50g mooncakes
