Hi Yochana
I like all your bakes. All your 'products' look so professional. Do you mind to share the recipe for greenbean cookies (kueh koya) and the chocolate mooncake that you have posted in KC and Jo's blog.
Thanks
Thank you Yochana, you are so thoughtful. Thanks

Hi esther,
use all butter, leave out the shortening.
rgds
can shortening be replaced with anything else?
hi nikki,
Just use 100% butter then.
rgds
hi,
Just curious, why use shortening if butter could be used 100%.
Is it for flavour or texture? Thanks.
Dear aunty,
Can I mix the sesame seeds into the flour or is it better to pour into the mixer separately? Thanks.
Regards
Eunice
Hi Eunice

Hi Yochana,
I'm wondering about the amount of the icing sugar stated in the recipe posted. Is that a typing error? 180g og icing sugar??? Mine doesn't come into a dough. The mixture is very dry and not stick togetehr at all.
What is happened? I have no idea. =(

Hi siew Cheng,
the recipe has no problem. It is correct. You must have done it wrongly. I suggest you try again.

Hi aunty,
do we need to toast the black & white sesame before mixing into the mixture?
