3. Use the mixed noodles, wrap the prepared bean paste nut stuffing, make it into a ball, and then shape the moon cake into a moon cake shape. Put it in a baking tray covered with tin foil.

4. Before copying, brush a layer of cooking oil on the moon cake with a brush.

5. Preheat the oven for 5 minutes, then bake the moon cakes in the oven for 20 minutes (200 degrees).
