Hi, I have tried this recipe several times and it makes really good Kuih Bangkit. One thing to note is that you need to take it out just when it becomes “just” slightly brown to achieve the balance of “melt-in-your-mouth” interior and “slightly crispy” exterior. Good Luck!

Kuih bangkit is very difficult to make. I tried 2 different recipes on separate occasion and my cookies just do not entirely resemble those sell in the store. The taste & fragrance is there (pandan & coconut), the texture is the hardest to get (they do not melt in the mouth). I am still wondering what went wrong. The 1st recipe I tried did not call for any fat at all, the cookies were as HARD as rock. The 2nd recipe had small amount of fat, the cookies were much softer but somehow, the dough was too dry. For me, that is the end of the journey with kuih bangkit.

Hi Howcrystal, I had the same problem using the cookie press. I only managed to get one batch out from the cookie press. Perhaps, it’s the texture of the dough which is not suitable for using the cookie press.

well i tried it out this morning but without the margarine i add sembolina a high grade flour and it was fragrant and taste same as those selling outside but the problem is i had a difficult time cutting and pressing to the desired shape and i had to keep adding the tapioca flour into the dough the shape still not good like the pictures above and i believe something gone wrong somewhere perhaps i need to keep it aside after the kneading perhaps half hour then only pressed it out am i right every step i did is the same as yours only cannot press the desired shape and hard to push

The ones made using your cookie press look very pretty.

oh my godddd !! My late aunt used to make this every CNY, I really missed them !! This is not easy to make, as it gets bit dry and crumbly, kudos to you :) Thanks for sharing, cheers !:)

Most CNY cookies are not easy to make. You’ve just made them sound or look rather easy. You are a dedicated chef!

Hi Candy Spooner, Thank you for all your comments. I will try to leave out the egg yolk the next time I make Kuih Bangkit again.
