Wife cake

Overview

I have made several versions of wife cake, but I have never found the most satisfactory filling recipe. Now that I have it, I accidentally found this recipe and tried it. It is exactly the kind of texture I like, QQ, and glutinous. The recipe for the pastry has also been slightly changed, reducing the amount of pastry, but the skin is still very crispy, so I don’t feel guilty if I eat a few more. It will be used in all future Chinese pastries. This recipe makes 16 pieces.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Mix all filling ingredients.

   

2. 2 Stir evenly into the filling, cover with plastic wrap and freeze in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes. (The filling is soft and slightly frozen for easy packaging)

   

3. 3 Mix the crust ingredients into a smooth dough, cover with plastic wrap and set aside.

   

4. 4 Slowly knead the pastry ingredients into a ball.

   

5. 5 Divide the pastry dough and crust dough into 16 equal portions. (The big one is pie crust dough, the small one is puff pastry dough)

   

6. 6 Take a piece of pie crust dough and wrap it in a piece of pastry dough, pinch it tightly and roll it into a round shape.

   

7. 7 Make all the cake dough.

   

8. 8 Take a cake dough and roll it into an oval shape, and roll it up from top to bottom.

   

9. 9 Make all the dough in turn, cover with plastic wrap and leave for about 10 minutes.

   

10. 10 Take one of them and flatten it lengthwise, roll it into a rectangle again, and roll it up from top to bottom to complete the second roll.

    

11. 11 Roll up all the dough, cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for about 10 minutes.

    

12. 12 Take one of them, press it down from the middle, pinch both ends to flatten it, and roll it into a round piece like a dumpling wrapper.

    

13. 13 Remove the filling from the refrigerator in advance and divide it into 16 equal portions. Take a pie crust and fill it with fillings.

    

14. 14 Pinch tightly with the seam facing downwards, and flatten slightly to form a cake base.

    

15. 15 Place on a non-stick baking pan, brush with egg wash, cut two slits with a razor blade (to prevent the filling from swelling when heated), and place in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 25 minutes.

    

16. 16 Finished product (the knife edge is too short and the filling is still a little swollen)

    

17. 17 The finished product has crispy outer skin and QQ fillings.
