My childhood favourite festive food was snow skin mooncake. Every year, my mom would make a small batch of snow skin mooncake. I would sit by her side and wait for the snow skin to be ready. That waiting time was killing me. Her recipe was the traditional method, using Gao Fen (ready-to-use cooked glutinous rice flour) mix with oil, sugar, banana essence and water then let the dough rest for many hours (I don't know how long) before she assemble the mooncake. So as a junior foodie, I will watch the dough for her and while watching, I would grab some dough to "test" (actually I tasted) the texture for her. When the dough is elastic, it's ready.

| Pandan Custard Snow Skin Mooncake This picture was taken before chill. It's not ideal to cut snow skin mooncake before chill, the mooncake is simply too soft to handle. Look at that piece at the bottom right... yeah, 我明知故犯, I cut that because the waiting time is killing me, again... >.< |
My hubby and son don't eat snow skin mooncake, not even a slice. There was a time I bought one big pack of Gao Fen, made one batch of snow skin mooncake to satisfy my crave, the leftover Gao Fen kept till expired and thrown away...all wasted. Therefore, now I don't make snow skin mooncake with Gao Fen. This recipe use a mixture a flour, mix and steam to get the chewy and soft texture. Very similar to Daifuku/ mochi recipe, added pandan and coconut flavour with my favourite creamy custard fillings, these are so yummy!
