To make the shell mixed moon cakes First, take half the prepared flour and place it in a large bowl. Next, add sugar water, cooking oil and ash water. Once all the ingredients are in the bowl, stir them together until the dough becomes a thick mass. At this point, you can slowly add the flour and continue stirring well.
Once all the dough ingredients are combined, knead the dough until it becomes a smooth mass.
When finished kneading the dough, use plastic wrap to cover the dough bowl and let the dough rise for about 1 hour. The process of proofing the dough not only helps the dough rise and create softness for the crust, but also helps the texture and flavor of the cake become softer and more delicious.
4. Shape the mooncakes
First of all, you need to divide the filling and crust into small pieces with a ratio of 2 parts filling and 1 part crust. After dividing evenly, roll the cake dough and filling into round balls.
The next step is to roll out the crust thinly, then place the filling in the middle and wrap it tightly, however, do not roll it flat but keep it in a round shape.

Then, gently put the cake into the mold and press firmly with your palm. Use your fingers to press the edges of the cake tightly, helping the cake to be sealed and not torn.
If you use a wooden mold, use light pressure to tap the mold on the table to help the cake slide out easily. In case of using a springform mold, press firmly so that the cake has a nice shape and sticks firmly to the mold.
Finally, place the pcs moon cake shaped onto the tray. You should line the tray with parchment paper to avoid the cake sticking to the tray. This process requires meticulousness and ingenuity to create beautiful and delicious moon cakes.
