http://esjoie.wordpress.com/

Ingredients A
25g icing sugar
25g shortening
110g salted butter
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp ammonium (can be omitted)
Ingredients B
1/2 egg
Ingredients C
190g plain flour
13g custard powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
Method :
1. Cream Ingredients A together till slight white and well mixed.
2. Gradually add in egg and mix well.
3. Sift Ingredients C together and add into mixture and form a dough. Do not knead.
4. Leave the dough in a plastic bag or cling wrap and leave in the fridge overnight or for a few days.
5. Weigh out the skin to 20g and 25g filling
6. Wrap lotus paste in the skin and decorate with Walnut (I stick walnuts to the side of the dough).
7. Apply egg wash and bake at 160ºC for 10 mins.
8.  Bring out and leave to cool for 10 mins.
9. Apply egg wash again and bake for another 15 mins.
Note :
- Feel free to adjust the proportion of skin and filling. I personally love the crust hence I didn’t mind thicker skin.
