I love to try smiling steamed cake [huat kuih] recipes and I expect the huat kuihs must 'smile' beautifully. They have to remain soft and moist when cooled.
Sometimes, they smiled but turned tough upon cooling. To me, they aren't good.
This is one of the many attempts which I made and is happy of the outcome. They satisfied the criteria of a good huat kuih cos' they are soft, moist, fluffy, cracked nicely and remains soft when cooled. It tasted good and the sweetness is just nice.
These huat kuihs are good on its own or serve with fresh grated white coconut mixed with a pinch of salt.
Recipe adapted from Fion [Xuanhommama] with modifications. For the original recipe, please check it out at Fion's blog site.
