Green Tea Moon Cake (with Single Yolk)

This moon cake was purchased from a bakery during our travel to Kuala Lumpur. I tried making one but it was not successful. If you want to give it a try here is the recipe and I would like to have a photo if you succeed ;-) Here is the link of the fellow blogger where I got the recipe http://nasilemaklover.blogspot.com/2011/09/green-tea-snow-skin-mooncake.html
