At the end of each year, the number of people who sunshine snowflake pastry in the circle of friends will be more, so it can be seen that snowflake pastry is a private explosive snack. In the past two years, I would make nougat and snowflake pastry all day long and distribute them to friends and family. In fact, I prefer to do it together with everyone, handmade these sweets to share the food, when life will be more interesting and sweeter. After studying the recipe of snowflake pastry, we will feel that it has a lot of similarities with nougat, *** with the use of marshmallows, butter and milk powder, but compared to the snowflake pastry is a little richer in terms of ingredients, you can also add cookies, nuts and dried fruit, etc., eat the texture of the crunchier.

I've been making snowflakes for three or four days before New Year's, and I've changed the recipe again and again, and I've finally adjusted the ratio of ingredients to my family's favorite flavors. In fact, after making a snowflake pastry, I understand that the main role of the marshmallow is responsible for all the ingredients including cookies, nuts and other dried fruit are bonded together, if the marshmallow is too little and too many cookies and nuts, then it will affect the final molding effect of the snowflake pastry; and, the degree of the softness of the snowflake pastry and the boiling time of the marshmallow, the amount of powdered milk, the amount of butter have a close correlation. To make your own handmade snowflake pastry more to your liking, it is recommended to follow the recipe once, then add or subtract nuts and dried fruit according to taste, and adjust the recipe according to your personal preference.

Many people like their snowflakes fluffy and delicious, so don't choose marshmallows that are overly sweet, and choose savory, thin and crispy cookies. Our family prefers nuts and dried fruit, so I added a larger amount. The nuts I used canned nuts, cashews, almonds, pine nuts, but also slightly added some peanuts and flaxseeds, peanut flavor is strong flaxseed is more fragrant, very compatible; dried fruit I deliberately added dried cranberries and raisins, of course, you can also use the daily nuts to make the snowflake crisps, the daily nuts nuts in the nuts and dried fruit are included.

--- Fruit Mom says --

? I have added quite a large portion of nuts here, I don't recommend adding more nutty portions in case it doesn't stick.

? This portion just fills the snowflake pastry mold tray.

? Try to use a non-stick pan to make the snowflake pastry to save time at work. I don't have a non-stick pan at home, so I used an Amway Queen Large Frying Pan to make the snowflake pastry, and it worked just fine.

? Use low heat throughout the process, it's easy to get a good grip on the heat with low heat and not mush the pan for best results.
