Happy Mid-Autumn Festival ~ Mooncakes 中秋节快乐 ～ 月饼
Hi everyone, Have you finished making your mooncakes for the Mid-Autumn Festival (Mooncake Festival), which is just around the corner? I’ve made my last batch of moonies last weekend and got them packed to giveaway to my friends and relatives. These baked mooncakes and piggies that you’re seeing in this post were made using the same recipe as the Baked Red Yeast Mooncakes, as I like that no egg washing required. I’m reposting this recipe using different measurements for my own reference. Hope you’ll not get tired and bored of seeing repeated recipes.

#Ann, noticed u have 2 type of traditional mooncake recipe (1 if purely for traditional mooncake and another one for the “koong chye peang”, which can also be use for traditional mooncake. What’s the difference between the two?
Hi Rowena, Both are the same recipe. Only different is the oven temp and baking time.
Hii.. may I know what the ingredients to glaze mooncake top after bake ? Thank you
Hi Ann, I tried your receipe for baked piglets, I used canola with sunflower oil instead of peanut oil but the dough turns out to be oily sticky and hard to shape. Should I cut down the oil or increase the flour? By how much in your experience? Thanks! I love your piglets, very nicely shaped
Hi Lynn, You must firstly blend the sugar syrup, alkaline water and oil very well (can blend for a minute) before pouring into the flour. (can use any type of cooking oil) Yes, you can add more flour if you find the dough is still very soft but not oily.
Morning mrs Ann low..
May I know,is alkaline water just the same with mineral water??
Hi Junic,
No, alkaline is mixed with baking soda. You may google search how to make alkaline water online if it is not available at the grocery store.
Oh ok… ?? thank you mrs…
Hi… mrs…
I’ve tried your recipe.
and I success… ???
At first time..
I forgot brush egg yolk on the mooncake.
the surface look more a little bit pale.
but the taste was so good.
then the second time.
I brush egg yolk. Hmmm…
The surface become crack.
may I know why it can happen??
Oh.. If I can upload my result for you to see..
?
But anyway.. thank you so much for your recipe… mrs… anncoo.. ??
Hi Junic, You have brush too much egg wash on the surface of the mooncake. So the mooncake looks crack after baked. Better leave it without egg wash 😀

好多漂亮的猪仔陪着过中秋哦!中秋节快乐!
Dear Ann, Love your mooncakes! Truly beautiful gifts for the festival hehe!But erm I'm wondering if the sugar syrup I'd light corn syrup or golden syrup? Or is it a special kind of syrup ratio hehe? Thank youuuuuu.
Hi Rachel, No problem to use light corn syrup or golden syrup. The sugar syrup that I used was caramel sugar syrup, is darker in colour.
Thank you so much for your reply hehe! <3
Ann , those piggies are too cute to eat ! Maybe I'll try to make it next year lolHappy Mid-Autumn Festival !!!!!
Wow those are really awesome looking! Never made mooncakes but now I want to lol. Pinned 🙂
How pretty and festive! Happy Mid Autumn Festival, Ann!
Good morning Ann, I noticed you normally used Kou Fen mixed with KCT Pinpe Premix Powder to make your snowskin moonies which yielded a good dough. Are you able to advise me how many days can sknowskin stay soft without going stale using your method. So far, I'd made snowskin moonies using Kou Fen but very much like to try your method of mixing Kou Fen with pinpe premix powder.BlessingsPriscilla Poh
Thank you again dear Ann. Blessings – Priscilla
Morning Priscilla, With the pinpe premix powder, the moonies can last for a week stored in an airtight container.Happy Mid-Autumn Festival to you and your family :))
Good collation Ann! At least we don't have to scramble all around 🙂
Ann, 中秋节快乐,猪猪很可爱! 我还没勇气去尝试! 嘻嘻
Ann, all too soon the festival is over. But it is not too late to admire your beautiful mooncakes and cute little piggies!
Hi Good Day AnnYour mooncakes are so so so….. beautiful, esp. the little piggies. Thank you for all your recipes. I understand you got your moonie mold from Taobao right? I checked from the link your provided but still not too clear on the availability of the sizes. Are you using the mini size, if it is, what size in the measurement I should buy? Thank you.WISHING YOU AND FAMILY A BLESSED MID-AUTUMN FESTIVAL, STAY HEALTHY AND MAY YOU LOOK FOREVER AS PRETTY AS THE BEAUTIFUL IMPRINTS OF YOUR MOONIES!
Hi Priscilia , Thank you very much. You're always so supportive to my blog. :))The moonies that you saw on my purple sweet potato snowskin and baked red yeast mooncakes are all mini sizes – 50g. If you find it troublesome to buy thru Taobao, you can check with SSB Supplies on Facebook. SSB can buy the moulds for you. Just leave her message to check the price.
Thank you dear Ann for the information. Will check. God bless. BlessingsPriscilla Poh
