The Mid-Autumn Festival is over, and I believe that there will be more or less some mooncakes left in everyone's homes.
Because mooncakes are very sweet and greasy, it's not good to eat too much, but it's a pity to throw them away. Are you worried about this?
Hehe, actually, there are many other ways to eat leftover mooncakes, such as using them with porridge, or slicing them to hold bread or steamed buns, etc., which are also very good ~

Let me introduce you to another way to eat lotus paste buns. It is simple and delicious, and it is not wasted ~ I hope everyone will like it ~
