Kuih Kapit (Love Letters)

Kuih Kapit aka Love Letters is a must for Chinese New Year. It is very crispy, crunchy and very addictive, i personally can eat a lot at one go. There is so many ways to fold this Kuih Kapit, can roll it or fold it into triangle shape, on your wish. No matter what, this is definitely my number one favorite among all the Chinese New Year treats. I hope you will like it too.
