Mooncake Cookie ~ 公仔饼
This cookie is usually in piggy shapes...but I am too lazy to mould them into pig...so I just used my cookie mould to make all these cute mooncake cookies...these are to satisfy the kids ..
Its actually made from the dough that is used to make traditional mooncake. So if you have your own recipe you can just bake them into cookie instead of the whole mooncake.
Ingredients
300g cake f|our
180g Golden syrup
5g alkaline water
60g cooking oil
