oooh i love these!
i have a question, do these split open themselves?
i usually get them in one round ball... and sometimes they have red bean/ peanut filling inside.
does this recipe work if i put a filling inside too?
tjiana,
No...you cannot put filling in this recipe cos it will split open very badly and all your fillings will ooze out into the hot oil.
