Tips:

1 I use a 50-gram mold, and the crust can range from 15 to 25 grams. Novices recommend 25 grams of crust. I don't like thin crusts, so I used 19 grams.
2 Adjust the temperature and time appropriately according to your own oven. The thicker the crust, the longer the time should be. On the contrary, shorten the time. When the mooncake is golden in color and the oven emits fragrance, you can basically turn off the fire.
3Do not brush too much egg yolk liquid, just brush a thin layer on the raised part, otherwise it will affect the image
