Year of the Rabbit Mooncakes

By
One good thing about being wrong about the date of Chinese New Year, I had an extra day to make my mooncakes.  Click here for the recipe.  But, as usual, I can't follow a recipe to save my life...even my own recipes! 

My Year of the Rabbit variations: instead of straight wheat flour I used a mix of rice flour, coconut flour, and white whole wheat flour.  And in my red bean filling, I added a dash of ginger syrup and powdered ginger for some added zing.  They are in the oven as I type, we'll see how they turn out.

    Oh that is so neat that you're making mooncakes. I've never made them before but I love to eat them.

    @Jenn, they were yummy. The dough, for some reason, puffed up during baking and when they flattened out again, the design was not as apparent. But they tasted great!

Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found." Read her invitation here. And there won't be a Twitter chat for this event, so you will have to dive into the articles themselves to read about our pairings and findings. Here's the line-up...
