Recognise this? We, the Baba Nyonya call it Kuih Belanda. You people call it Love Letter. So far I only see shapes of flower, no alphabets. 
Those in the left container is for us to eat. Dah habis pun by today. Those are the rejected ones. You can figure out why from the color. And the right container can only be eaten on CNY day.
MIL made them 2 days ago with the help of the maid and SIL. I help to eat only only today coz if you eat them on the same day, sure will kena sore-throat one.
With this cookie, it marks the coming of CNY. 
Stumble it!

My grandmother used to make this every CNY and she does it the traditional way - a lot of work and have to have quick fingers and work really fast. These days they have a machine to make this but I feel it doesn’t taste as good as it is done traditionally.
