Moon Cakes

I love moon cakes and these are the first ones that I made in celebration of the Mid Autumn Festival. I don’t love the salted egg yolk that is traditionally in the middle of each moon cake to represent the moon, so I didn’t include these. These are filled with homemade azuki bean paste which I make less sweet than commercially available azuki bean paste. I just ate the cut one and they are truly delicious, just enough sweetness and a bit of texture from the paste as I didn’t blend it down. The pastry is nice and short and crisp, yummy.
