Mini Shanghai Mooncake

 

 

 

 

I didn't bake Shanghai mooncake in last year, so this year I don't want to miss it.

 

Ingredients : 350gm flour, 75gm sugar, 1 1/2 tsp baking powder, 2 tbp custard powder, 100gm shortening, 50gm butter, nuts (walnut, chestnut, almond), melon seed, lotus paste, 2 eggs

 

 

Mixed the butter, shortening and cheese by using mixer for about 5 min.

 Add in flour, baking powder, custurd powder. Using mixer to mix the ingredients.
Add in 2 eggs.

 Beat egg yolk with water. Keep for topping.

 Mixed lotus paste with nuts and melon seed. Make into small ball.

 This pandan lotus paste mixed with melon seed only.

 Wrap the lotus paste with flour.
Filling size = 1 tsp
Dough size = 1 tbp
Knead the dough into round shape and wrap the lotus.

 Add topping with 1 layer egg. Garnish with melon seed or sesame.
I baked for 20 min. I think I made a mistake. 15-16 min should be good enough for small mooncake.
