Snowskin mooncake

Overview

It’s been too hot these days and I really don’t want to use the oven, but my hands are itchy. Thinking about it, it’s almost the Mid-Autumn Festival anyway, so let’s make some mooncakes. I just made a crystal mooncake a few days ago, and everyone said it was delicious. I’m going to make a snow-skinned one today. I still like QQ’s glutinous things.

  5. Sieve the steamed pumpkin and purple sweet potato, so that the taste will be better. The purple sweet potato puree will be dry, so you can add some sugar and some milk and stir evenly

  6. The pumpkin puree will be relatively watery. After sifting it, add sugar in a non-stick pan, add some cornstarch and stir-fry over low heat until it forms a ball.

  10. Knead all the dough and fillings into small balls of 25 grams (because the mold I used is a 50-gram mold. If you don’t feel good about it, you can also make the dough into 30 grams and the filling into 20 grams, as long as the total amount is 50 grams)

  11. Stick some cooked glutinous rice flour on your hands, take a piece of dough, flatten it, add a filling, and wrap it up

  12. Wrap up the dough bit by bit with the thumb of your hands. (If you feel that the filling is difficult to wrap, you can refrigerate all the fillings in the refrigerator for half an hour. This will make it much easier to wrap)
