Trying to make my own Xiamen snack - coconut cake

Overview

This year, the hospital organized a trip to Xiamen. I thought the coconut cakes that our colleagues in the department brought back from Xiamen were very delicious. I have always wanted to try making them myself. Unfortunately, there are no coconut milk sellers here, but online shopping nowadays can really meet all kinds of needs. I bought them directly. I tried one two days ago. Ha, it’s okay. Although it’s not as delicious as the ones sold, it’s eighty-like and not as sweet!

  9. Divide the risen dough into 10 equal portions. I only took photos of six portions because the baking tray bakes six at a time

  10. Put a piece of dough into the tart mold and knead it like a tart crust

  11. The kneaded tart crust should have been made using a chrysanthemum mold, so that it would look more like it. Unfortunately, I didn’t have one, so the baked ones weren’t as beautiful as the ones sold by others.

  14. After leaving it overnight to recover the oil, it tastes very good. It’s very similar. I love it! I’ll make it next time and bring it to my friends to try my new snacks, haha
