We love melt-in-the-mouth cookies.
I have this little Roselle Bites
to share with you.
When you bite into these mini cakes,
you will be surprised to taste the sweet and a little sour roselle filling.
However, roselle filling is bright red
which is an auspicious colour for the Chinese New Year!
I have adapted this recipe from Sonia a.k.a. Nasi Lemak's recipe

Great, something refreshing for a change from the common type of cookies...
thank you Katie Foong.😊
Katie Foong Exactly! I always love to try something new. You are welcomed.
Thanks for sharing!!! It looks really amazing!
Katie Foong: Thank you. Actually, I let my friends try
and they suggest that I should make open tarts to show off
the filling instead of wrapping it up! I am going to try that soon.
