1. Crack 2 eggs into a bowl and beat them into egg liquid with chopsticks

2.121 Use chopsticks to stir the egg liquid and sugar evenly to dissolve the sugar.

3.212 Add 150g sugar to the egg mixture

4.1 Continue to add 1 spoon of maltose

5.2 Add 1 spoon of beer to the egg liquid (Hui Xin's intimate tip: If there is no beer, you can use water instead. Adding beer is a method taught to me by my mother-in-law. In Shanxi, my parents' generation are all masters of making mooncakes, and everyone has their own unique secrets. Adding beer can remove the fishy smell of eggs and increase the fluffiness of the dough)

6. Put 50 grams of butter in a small bowl, put water in a pot and bring to a boil, put the small bowl with butter in the water, and heat it over water until the butter melts.

7. Pour the melted butter into the egg mixture

8.12 Add 1 tablespoon of baking soda

9.21 Use chopsticks to mix all the ingredients evenly. Beat them for as long as possible to make sure all the ingredients are completely mixed. This is the prepared egg and sugar syrup. (Hui Xin’s intimate tip 2: When stirring the egg sugar syrup, try to stir it for a while longer. If you stir it for a short time, the sugar will not dissolve fully.)

10.12 Put the prepared egg sugar syrup in a deeper dough bowl and add 600 grams of low-gluten flour (Hui Xin's intimate tip 3: the amount of flour depends on the amount of egg sugar syrup. It is best to add the flour in batches to help control the softness and hardness of the dough)

11.21 Mix the flour and egg sugar syrup evenly with your hands to make the flour absorb the egg liquid to form a dough

12. Knead the dough until the surface is smooth and set aside to sugar for 15 minutes

13. Knead the sugar-coated dough into long cylindrical dough with your hands

14. Use a knife to divide the long cylindrical dough into 60g dough pieces.

15. Take a dough and use both hands to knead it into a thinner edge and thicker middle crust. Put 1 tablespoon of the prepared filling in the middle of the crust.

16.Pinch the edges of the dough like making dumplings to form a cone shape

17. Use your thumb to press the top of the cone down to form a thick round cake

18. Brush a layer of cooking oil on the bottom of the mooncake mold, and place the round cake with the smooth side facing down in the mold.

19. Use the palm of your hand to press the surface of the round cake several times to make the surface smooth.

20. Gently push the round cake out with your hands to make the mooncake.

21. Place a layer of tin foil on the bottom of the baking tray and place the prepared mooncakes on the tin foil.

22. Take the egg yolk and put it in a bowl. Beat it evenly with chopsticks.

23. Use a brush to dip a small amount of egg yolk liquid and brush a layer evenly on the surface of each mooncake dough (Hui Xin's intimate tip 4: Brush a layer of egg liquid evenly around the mooncake dough, the baked mooncakes will have a more uniform color. This is a defect in my production process)

24. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees for 5 minutes and place the baking tray on the upper layer of the oven.

25. Still select 200 degrees heat, heat the upper and lower tubes, and bake for 15 minutes

26. When this mooncake is baked, you will find that the mooncake expands to twice its size before baking, and the surface is evenly colored.
