Woolen Five Nuts Mooncake

Woolen Five Nuts Mooncake

Overview

Fleece mooncakes were a very luxurious food when I was young, so I have always had a special memory of them. They were actually puff pastry mooncakes, but they were not very common to eat at that time. I happened to have some fillings left over from making five-nut mooncakes, so I had a lot of fun making a handful of furry mooncakes today.
