Special Cookies


This year I didn't bake any cookies or even cakes during Chinese New Year. Since I 'm working full time now, I don't have enough time to do it. So I have to buy them from shops. I came across this shop which is very near to my office which is very famaous selling cookies. The name of this shop is Ching Han Guan Biscuit Manufacturer which sell quality and freshly bake cookies daily at Hugh Low Street (old name) or Jalan Sultan Iskandar Shah.
At first I try each flavour at a time. Also they will give samples to me to try before buying. The small puff contains the spicy ingredients which my mum like it. I think I like the pineapple tart. The shape of if is different from other people home bake. The one inside the container is crispy shredded yam sprinkle with sesame. Not easy to find these special cookies during Chinese New Year.
Also, the big round shape cookies are their No.1 and most special one with the name "Yuk Si Lin Yung". I feel funny after hearing it. How can "Yuk Si" which is "Pork Floss" mix with "Lin Yung" which is a sweet paste make from "Lin Chi nuts"? Hahaha... that is the most surprise part! The content inside the pastry is their specialty. They put the "Yuk Si" on top of the "Lin Yung paste" and make it into round shape. The taste... is very good. For so many years we stay in Ipoh and we can't find or didn't know such a special pastry. Since I have friends from Penang and KL, so I take the opportunity to buy them a packet to try since it is near Chinese New Year. They love it so much! This shop is selling their No.1 cookies through out the year.
