Instructions

  1. 1 Combine milk, cinnamon, vanilla, and cloves in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring every so often, until spices become one with the milk, 3 to 5 minutes. Be sure to stir from the bottom of the pot so the milk doesn't burn.
  2. 2 Meanwhile, whisk egg yolks and cane sugar together in a large mixing bowl until pale yellow, thick, and smooth.
  3. 3 Remove milk mixture from the stove. Pour some of the hot milk into the egg yolk mixture, whisking quickly to avoid scrambling the eggs. Continue, pouring a little bit at a time and whisking, until all has been added.
  4. 4 Pour the mixture back into the pot and place over medium heat. Stir constantly with a spatula until eggnog thickens and becomes light beige in color, about 5 minutes; it should leave a slight film on the spatula. Remove from the heat.
  5. 5 Pour whipping cream and nutmeg into a pitcher. Pour eggnog mixture into the whipping cream and mix with the spatula to combine. Place in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight for best enjoyment. Stir before serving.

  1. 1 Sprinkle yeast over warm water in a bowl. Let stand until yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes.
  2. 2 Meanwhile, combine flour and salt in the bowl of a food processor; pulse once or twice to combine. Scatter butter over flour; process until butter is thoroughly mixed into flour mixture, about 1 minute.
  3. 3 Whisk yeast mixture, sour cream, egg yolks, egg, and vanilla extract together in a bowl; pour into food processor. Pulse several times just until dough starts to hold together and cleans the sides of the bowl (do not overmix). Transfer dough to a work surface; divide in half. Form each dough half into a thick disk; wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours to overnight.
  4. 4 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line several baking sheets with parchment paper.
  5. 5 Sprinkle a work surface generously with sugar. Roll out 1 dough disk into an 8x16-inch rectangle; sprinkle dough generously with sugar. Fold dough over in thirds, letter-style. Repeat rolling, sugaring, and folding two more times. Roll out dough into a 4x14-inch rectangle, about ¼-inch thick. Repeat process with second dough disk.
  6. 6 Cut strips from short sides of dough rectangles about ½- to ¾-inch wide. Place strips onto the prepared baking sheets, twisting and slightly stretching strips or form into horseshoe shapes.
  7. 7 Bake in the preheated oven until lightly golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Cookies will puff up a bit to reveal delicate layers. Cool cookies on baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

  2. 2 Add 2/3 cup melted butter and 2 eggs to the bowl with the yeast mixture and mix well. Add 7 cups flour, 1 cup at a time and mix in; when dough comes together, start kneading until elastic but still sticky. Cover the bowl and let rise for 1 hour in a warm place.

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line a 9-inch square cake pan with enough parchment paper so that it overhangs all four sides of the pan; this will make removal of the cake easier.
  2. 2 Heat oil and milk in a small pan until warm. Pour sifted cake flour into the pan and whisk until combined; batter will be pretty sticky. Whisk in egg yolks, one at a time. Add vanilla and salt and whisk until well combined. Make sure there are no air bubbles.
  3. 3 Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until foamy. Gradually add sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.
  4. 4 Pour egg yolk mixture on top of the stiff egg whites. Gently fold everything together using a spatula until batter is light and foamy. Slowly pour batter into the prepared cake pan. Knock cake pan against the kitchen counter twice to remove all air bubbles and smooth out the top with a spatula.
  5. 5 Set the baking dish into a deep baking pan. Add enough hot water to the baking pan so that the baking dish sits 1/2-inch deep in water.
  6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven in the hot water bath until the cake is set, 45 to 50 minutes. Remove from oven and lift cake from the pan using the parchment paper. Serve warm or allow to cool before serving.

  1. 1 Stir the golden syrup together with 3 tablespoons of peanut oil in a small saucepan over low heat until the mixture becomes very warm, and the syrup is easy to stir, about 3 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together the cake flour, baking soda, and salt in a mixing bowl. Stir in the golden syrup until a smooth dough forms. Wrap well with plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 4 hours.
  2. 2 Meanwhile, combine the adzuki beans and water in a large saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the beans are tender, about 1 hour. Drain and allow to cool for 10 minutes. Puree the beans in a blender or food processor.
  3. 3 Heat 1/4 cup of peanut oil over medium heat in the saucepan the beans were boiled in. Stir in the pureed beans along with the white sugar. Cook and stir until the bean paste clings to the stirring spoon, 10 to 20 minutes. Stir in the wheat starch. Scrape into a mixing bowl. Chill in the refrigerator until cold.
  4. 4 Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  5. 5 Divide the dough and the filling each into 8 equal portions and roll into balls. Press the dough balls between your palms to form circles large enough to envelop a filling ball. Place a ball of the filling onto the center of each pastry circle, wrap the pastry around the filling, and pinch the edges together. Roll the mooncakes in the all-purpose flour to coat; shake off excess. Place the mooncakes seam-side-down onto the prepared baking sheet and press to flatten slightly.
  6. 6 Mist lightly with water. Bake in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. Remove the mooncakes from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  7. 7 Brush with the beaten egg yolk, applying more of the yolk to to tops than to the sides. Return to the oven and bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes more. Cool completely before serving.
