西马东海岸一带的人称为Kuih Makmur，在东马我们叫它Kuih Momo。
奇怪的是大家都叫Kuih (糕)，但事实它却是饼干，还是东马人的年饼！
从小到大我都爱吃这款莫莫饼！不过中间也错过了好几年。。。
我今年决定把这款饼干学起了，以后每年保证都可以吃到，呵呵！
对Mui Mui 家的这个食谱，相当满意！谢谢她让我从温回记忆中的好味道！
This is Kuih Makmur, a delicacy originated from East Cost of Peninsular Malaysia but in the other part of East Malaysia, we called it Kuih Mo Mo. It sound strange we called it kuih (cake) even though it resemble more to a cookies. It is normally being serve during CNY in my hometown and has been one of my favorite since those childhood days. I have long forgotten about this traditional delicacies after moving to KL and by chance, happen to be "reunited" with it through a blog.
Since I have decided to go ahead with making this cookies in order to inherit the tradition. I'm very satisfy with Mui Mui's kuih mo mo recipe. Thanks her for bringing me back to that long lost taste :)
