Bean paste cake

Overview

The puff pastry is stuffed with red bean paste. When baked, the aroma fills the room. After it came out of the oven, I couldn't wait to eat one. Ah, it was so crispy and fragrant. The bean paste filling inside was soft and sweet when I took a bite. It was combined with the pastry and brought to my mouth. The two merged with each other. It was really a delicious thing.
