Golden Cheese Mooncake

Golden Cheese Mooncake

Overview

Mr. Wang Sen’s golden cheese mooncakes are golden in color and very tempting. Just a few words, seemingly simple. Although I don’t have the square mold, the set of cookie cutters I have on hand should do the job. It's just that it can't be made into a neat square, but can only be cartoon images with different shapes. It doesn't matter, it was originally meant to be given to a little friend. The batter is very soft and must be refrigerated to harden before it can be easily shaped. Put the mold into the oven and bake it together. I was originally thinking, should I wait for the cake base to cool before adding the filling and bake it, or should I add the filling and bake it immediately after baking? When the baking of the cake base was finished, I saw that a seam had separated the dough cake from the mold, and I felt a little confused. The filling was so thin, couldn't it flow out through that seam? Don't wait for it to cool down, just pour the filling directly. Maybe the heat will solidify the filling a little bit, thus preventing/slowing down the flow. Pour the filling as quickly as possible and put it in the oven. Overflow is inevitable, but it’s not too bad. After entering the oven, the temperature prevents the filling from overflowing. This cartoon golden mooncake actually looks realistic. Cool, refrigerate, and unmold carefully, but in the end you still can't avoid scratches on the edges. . . .
