Kueh Bangkit - 3rd Time



We made another batch of Kueh Bangkit requested by our grandmother.
Batch 1 was successful but Batch 2 turn out to be not crispy. My father suggested to reheat the Batch 2 Kueh Bangkit and it really works. Now the it is very crispy and nice to eat. Yeah!! Now both batches are successful.

2 Batches of Kueh Bangkit 

Batch 1
  • 150g tapioca flour
  • 1 tsp of pandan essence
  • 40g margarine
  • 120g icing sugar
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 125ml coconut milk
Batch 2 
  • 150g tapioca flour
  • 1 tsp of pandan essence
  • 30g margarine
  • 140g icing sugar
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 125ml coconut milk
Method
  1. Place a paper towel on a microwave safed bowl, add the tapioca flour and microwave for 1 minute. Set aside and let it cool. Microwave extra tapioca flour to flour the surface and kneading purpose. Fill the microwave safed bowl to about 1/3 or 1/2 each time. (If you do not have microwave, you can fry the flour)
  2. Sift tapioca flour and icing sugar in a big bowl. 
  3. Beat the butter and egg 
  4. Add in the flour, icing sugar and coconut milk
  5. Knead until the dough is pliable. (If the dough is wet or soft, add more tapioca flour, 1 Tbp. at a time and knead until it becomes a harder dough. Likewise, if it's too dry, add more coconut milk).
  6. Roll dough on a floured table to about 3mm thickness. 
  7. Use cookie cutters to cut the dough 
  8. Bake on lined tray in preheated oven at about 150°C for about 10 to 15 mins depending on the thickness of the dough. (It will puff when baked)
  9. Remove to cool completely before storing.

Note:
Make sure the dough is not too wet, if it can't hold the shape. When you rolled it out and cut it with a cookie cutter and placed it on the baking tray, the shape disappeared before your eyes. If this happen, add a little more tapioca flour and knead it again. But if the shape hold, you are fine to go.

Troubleshoot:
If cookie turns out to be soft and not crispy, can try reheat them again.
