Chestnut Cake

Chestnut Cake

1. First of all, you need to peel off the sugar-fried chestnuts bought from outside, as long as the chestnuts are meat. Because I eat less, I make less. If I make 10 biscuits, it is enough, but if I eat as a family, I need to buy more candied chestnuts. If the chestnut skin is too hard to peel, people with strong floors at home can throw the chestnuts, and they must work hard, so that they can split a mouth, which is much easier to peel!

2. It’s best if you have a small rolling pin like mine at home. If you don’t have one, you can use a larger one or use a spoon. However, using a spoon may be slower. Remember: Do not use a juicer or other machines for convenience. It will not only destroy it. The machine, and the chestnut paste produced is not delicious! Must be handmade!

3. Then start to smash the chestnut puree, remember that there should be no water in the bowl now, otherwise the chestnut sauce that is smashed will not only be very thin, but also will not taste chestnut after the cake, which is not delicious! So it must be dry, and the strength should not be too strong, otherwise the chestnuts will be smashed out of the bowl and a lot of food will be wasted.

4. It's almost enough to mash the chestnuts like this. The standard is that it will be broken by rubbing it with your hands, and if it sticks to your hands, it will be fine, and if it feels dry, it will be fine!

5. Now put in a little water, the water is at two-fifths of the chestnuts, and then stir them together. Use chopsticks and a rolling pin to stir them into chestnut paste. Just like this, keep stirring until it is even. , And then continue to smash with the rolling pin, this time you have to smash it for a while and stir it until it reaches the bottom.

6. By the way, I just forgot to introduce it, it's normal to appear like this in the middle! Don't think that the chestnuts are broken, just look at the half-finished ones.

7. Continue to stir and smash the above look! It can be smashed into its current appearance, it looks a bit like peanut butter, a bit sticky and sticky, and a little granular. If you like to eat a bit more flavorful, you can put a little less water, but the color of the finished product is not very beautiful!

8. Then put the smashed chestnut sauce in a larger pot or bowl. Next, we put in the flour, glutinous rice noodles, and egg whites if we want, it will be softer! Because there was no glutinous rice noodles at the time, so I could only put flour...there were no eggs at home...so there was no egg white, so it was not very tasty...so remember to put glutinous rice noodles, otherwise it would be very dry and not It's delicious, dry!

9. Add flour below, if you don’t think it is sweet enough, add a little sugar.

10. Stir it with a spoon to form such a lump, and then you can mix the noodles with your hands.

11. This kind of dough is soft and soft, and not particularly soft, very good!

12. Then rub it into a thick strip like this.

13. Then cut into such an agent.

14. Knead these balls one by one. Remember not to use the knife-cut side to knead. Be sure to use the smooth side that is facing outwards before and knead it into a ball with your palm.

15. Then I pat it with the palm of my hand and it becomes this kind of cookie, but it's a pity that I didn't put the rice noodles or it would be very delicious! Before making this kind of cake, you only need to sprinkle a little raw flour on the chopping board and don't need to spread it evenly, but you must ensure that there is no water or oil on the chopping board! This will not stick to the chopping board.

16. You can bake these small biscuits one by one. It is best not to use the oven, but to use a pan, preferably a non-stick pan. It looks like this when baked.

17. Because there is no rice noodles and egg whites, the surface is a bit dry and slightly mushy, which is a bit of a failure, but I guarantee that as long as you put the rice noodles and egg whites carefully, this will not happen!

18. I felt a bit dry without adding the rice noodles, but I still have to emphasize that the rice noodles and egg whites must be added! (*^__^*) Hehe! By the way, I also made pumpkin pie, but the pumpkin needs to be steamed first. After it is steamed and mashed into a puree, it has the same flour and the same proportion. The cake must be a little bigger than the chestnut pie, remember! That's it for everyone! I'm tired, I'm going to rest! In the future, I will upload anything that is delicious!
