Salted Egg Yolk Cookies 咸蛋黄酥饼
These Salted Egg Yolk Cookies are getting very popular these days especially among the Facebook baking groups. I too became very keen and eager to give it a try and when I saw Zoe’s post of a smaller portion recipe, I just couldn’t wait to jump into the bandwagon to join in the fun. These salted egg yolk cookies are melt-in-your-mouth and very addictive. I like the combination of an in between not so sweet and savoury taste, crumbly texture together with a slight hint of salted egg aroma. Will I bake more? Certainly!
