The first time I made mooncakes - five-nut mooncakes

Overview

It’s my first time to make mooncakes, so happy. This was the first time I made it. Except for the syrup, which I didn’t make by hand, everything else was made by myself because syrup is crucial. I was anxious to make mooncakes, so I bought ready-made inverted syrup. This is filled with five nuts and has just the right amount of sweetness. The mooncake mold is 50 grams, and I bought cartoon flowers. My daughter likes it very much.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Mix the syrup, alkaline water and oil evenly.

5. 5 Take a piece of dough, flatten it, and put the five-nut filling on it.

   

6. 6 Place the right hand at the tiger's mouth, press the stuffing with your left thumb, and push up with your right hand to close the mouth.

   

7. 7 After wrapping, coat it with a thin layer of flour. Also sprinkle some flour into the mold and pour it out.

9. 9 Place the mooncake mold facing downwards and gently press down to take out the mooncakes.
