Thanks for trying my recipe, and sorry to hear the texture wasn’t as you expected! It sounds like both the dough and the filling might be lacking moisture. Did you measure all the ingredients precisely? If the amount of eggs in the filling or the milk or oil in the dough is less than required, it can result in a tough dough or a dry filling. I hope your next attempt turns out better!

Do you know how to fix this?

The colored ones have a very subtle taste of matcha. But it doesn’t affect the overall taste. Happy cooking, Melanie!

If I want to color them will the flavor of the mooncake change?

Unfortunately not. If only use glutinous rice flour, the dough will be overly sticky.

That’s all I had on hand at the moment.

I haven’t tried making them with salted butter. But I don’t think it would dramatically change the overall taste (some might find it nicer as it balances the sweetness). You can also slightly increase the powdered sugar to compensate. Wish you a happy Mid-Autumn Festival and hope you enjoy making these mooncakes.

Obviously it would taste more salty, but have you ever tried it? And if so, is it not as good in your personal opinion?

It’s sweetened condensed milk. Happy cooking Clara!
