Gula Melaka Kuih Bangkit




There was  some Gula Melaka (Palm Sugar) leftover in my pantry after making Gula Melaka (Palm Sugar) Cupcake , it is an eyesore seeing it in my pantry; it might be a good idea to get rid of it by using it in some baking recipe. Internet is the best place to get recipe, found a recipe that used Gula Melaka and it was quite a similar recipe that I have that I attempted before - Kuih Bangkit (That recipe is just a normal popluar recipe) and the only difference is one called for the use of sugar and the other uses Gula Melaka (palm sugar). I have the recipe adapted from pengskitchen . 
 
Ingredients:
90g Gula Melaka, chopped for easier melting
100ml Thick coconut milk + extra for kneading
30g Butter, soften
1 Egg Yolk
250g Tapioca Flour, weight after frying*

* Dry fry tapicoca flour on low heat for 20mins with some pandan leaves and light and fluffy. Cool completely before storing. Rest the flour for at least 3 days before using.


1. Melt gula melaka with coconut milk over low heat until sugar is dissolved. Strain mixture.

2. Place butter and egg yolk in a mixing bowl and mix lightly till combined.
3. Sift in tapioca flour and mix lightly using a wooden spoon. Add in gula melaka mixture and mixed till combine. Add in more coconut milk and knead till a dough form. Mixture should not be crumbly.


4. Wrap dough in a clingwrap and rest for at least 30mins or longer.(The recipe called for the dough to rest, however I realised that after resting the dough it dried up and I have to put in more coconut milk to knead it so that I can roll put the dough)-I suggested this step to be skipped totally.
5. Remove dough from wrap and knead lightly again. Lightly flour a rolling surface and roll dough into a 1/2 cm thick. Stamp out cookie using a cookie cutter.
6. Lighty sprinkle some tapioca flour onto baking sheet and place cut out cookie over.
7. Bake in preheated oven at 160C for 20-25mins or until it turned slightly brown.
