And here's my 3rd CNY goodies for 2017! Always a favorite recipe and goodie every year, but I'm trying out a new recipe this year. As usual, I always go for simple recipes but still as yummy!


This 4-ingredient recipe from Baking Tai Tai is a winner!

 

1. Steam salted egg yolk for 10 mins and mash till as fine as possible.
2. Sift flour. Set aside.
3. Cream softened butter and caster sugar till a small peak is formed.
4. Add in mashed salted egg yolk and mix till combined.
5. Mix in sifted flour till a soft and pliable dough is formed.
6. Divide dough into 10g each, roll into a ball and place on baking tray.
7. Apply egg wash and sprinkle white sesame seeds on the surface of the ball.
8. Bake in preheated oven at 170C for 10 min and then lower temperature to 150C to bake for another 15 min or until surface is golden brown.
   (This temperature and time is suggested in the original recipe. I baked mine at 160C for 25 min or until golden brown and it comes out well too.)
